You should never have to "get used to the patterns"... that in itself is an anti-pattern.

Counterpoint: Everyone had to "get used to the patterns" for the first programming style they learnt (even if they've been programming long enough to forget that).

That shouldn't be a reason to avoid learning a different style -- unless there's good reason to believe that style B's patterns are much harder to learn than style A's were (which I'm sceptical of in this specific case).
