I used to feel as you do, which is basically "What about the special cases!" But then I realized that it was much preferred and easier to have consistent styling automatically enforced everywhere. For the rare times I really don't like it, I can just add an ignore prettier comment.

The one thing I'll give to you is the handling of arrays. There is an open issue to treat array literals the same as object literals in that newlines between elements will be respected and not automatically compressed onto a single line if the whole line is less than max-width. After about a half year of usage that's the only default I really don't like.
