I used to feel that way too. However, a couple of years ago Robert
Dewar mananged to convince me that it should not not be put in
functions, as its essentially a redundancy there ("out" isn't
allowed). So now my personal style guide reads the same as yours, with
an exception for functions, which should not have any modes on their
parameters (unless "access" is used).
