The most important point the author is missing is code readability - being forced to write opinionated code is one thing. Having a chance to read somebody elses code (or your own code 3 months later) and avoiding eternal debate on code formatting is priceless. Programming is not about being able to outsmart others, in particular not in a large-scale project.

...every large scale project I've worked on has had a set coding standard and supplied auto-format tools either as IDE plugins or as part of the checkin procedure to make it easy to adhere to the standard.
