It was in the Android repo, which used Gerrit.

I never dealt with readability, because Android did not require it. In fact that was part of their internal recruiting pitch: fed up with readability? Come work on Android! Heh.

well, Android was always a bit of a special snowflake compared to the rest of the company. Separate codebase, separate build system, separate SCCM, etc. You can't really compare an Android team to a google3 team.

Culturally, it was worse when Andy was in charge, but it was still true when I left in 2018.
