I personally use Allman style everywhere,
but I switched to K&R style here, to match the original posted code...
(although, as it happens the original code appears to be some kind of K&R variant which puts the function open-brace on the same line as the function signature)

You're getting away from the important, and terrifying, point here;
people who code like emvee can actually find well paid employment writing software, some of which might be required to do something important.

Basically, the entire industry works on a 90-10 principle: you can fire 90 percent of your coders, because all they're actually doing is slowing down the 10 percent who end up writing/fixing it all anyway.
