A tool that forces people to use a standard style is not nearly as
valuable as
one that makes it easy for them to do so. Your web page talks about
enforcing
style, but doesn't mention automating it. If your LSE does indeed
provide for
assiting in entry of properly indented and delimited code, that's worth 
mentioning explicitly; if it doesn't, I question the value of the
product, 
especially since much less expensive LSEs are capable of doing that.
