Fair point, but then again we don't have to add every file to the
automated style checks, for example by adding "/* *INDENT-OFF* */" at
the top of the file. The "--exclude" command line flag can also be
used for that. Or portions of files can also be marked
not-to-be-touched with the INDENT-OFF/INDENT-ON comments.
