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...
