I disagree with your assertion that inserting space after 'if', 'for',
'while' etc is universal outside of Plan 9. I have never adopted that
convention, and it looks ugly to me. That is probably because I learned C
by reading the Unix kernel source code (6th Edition) which displays a
preference fo
don't follow or pretend to follow rules you don't understand. i agree
about the variable initialization example, it's totally fine to break
the style rule in that case IMO. but i'm biased, i'm already used to
people initializing all over the place.

The Go released a very good idea, go fmt
imho, it is a better way
