Don't worry too much, at least from where I sit, you are the LAST person
I would try to impose any standards on, I avoid people with this kind
of attitude, regardless of their supposed skills (I say supposed, because
to me, the ability to follow consistent style guidelines without such
foolish objections is a critical part of professional competence in
the programming area).


You will find plenty of places where such views are considered aceptable,
though I suspect you may do better sticking to C and C++, isntead of
persuing Ada, if you have this kind of attitude :-)
