If you haven't been following a recent "wordy" but interesting thread
in comp.lang.ada, one of the participants made a pithy point that's
worth repeating:
"... goal should be coding standards that make it easy to read the code,
not code that makes it necessary to read the coding standards."
Indeed, if you can't understand or maintain the code without the standard,
then the coding standard is not making the code more maintainable, is it?
