The missing part. 'IMHO it should generally done like A, but for LyX existing/best/Guru practice B is fine'. It's like saying: 'IMHO any superflous braces should be removed, but for LyX it is fine to have some around blocks with more than one line, too' or: 'IMHO header inclusion should be avoided whenever possible, but for LyX it is fine to be not so strict' or: 'IMHO structs should always be passed be reference instead of returning them from a function, but for LyX it is fine to return them' or: 'IMHO one should never use non-standard libraries if using standard code give a solution of equal length, but for LyX anything from boost is ok' or: 'IMHO one should never try to guard against the unforeseen with extra code but fix the bug once the appear, but for LyX it is ok to have a few verbose safety belts' I think there are a few more of them...
