There are two kinds of people: 1) Those who oppose ambiguity 2) Those who are wrong Now those who oppose ambiguity want quotes to be trimmed, with a direct reply underneath so there is no ambiguity on which comment the response addresses. Those who oppose ambiguity also want unambiguous EOLs, so the end of a line cannot be confused with an authors misguided attempt to use the EOL as a crutch for a poor rendering tool. Those in group 2 expect the readers to do the work -- they want the reader to deal with figuring out what reply references what comment, and guess about where lines need to (re)wrap, and where line breaks should be honored.
