OK, rant mode off. I feel better now! I got that off my chest!
I don't want to start another discussion about this (the ck mailing list had one these days), but this has nothing to do about choice: it's a convention. And I don't think you want even to try to send a patch to Linus with code conventions he doesn't like. -- "Quem excele em empregar a força militar subjulga os exércitos dos outros povos sem travar batalha, toma cidades fortificadas dos outros povos sem as atacar e destrói os estados dos outros povos sem lutas prolongadas. Deve lutar sob o Céu com o propósito primordial da 'preservação'. Desse modo suas armas não se embotarão, e os ganhos poderão ser preservados. Essa é a estratégia para planejar ofensivas." -- Sun Tzu, em "A arte da guerra" -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
