A phrase I heard early in my career from a superior while reviewing code was "just reminding myself that while this isn't how I'd do it, that doesn't make it wrong"
I don’t disagree with the take, but it doesn’t seem sufficient either.
Even if you have developers that know better than to toss aside each other's linter rules and don’t rewrite each other's code in the name of “refactoring”, then if you still have people with differing views working on the codebase, its consistency over time will become less than more.
Whereas if developer A tries to be agreeable then more and more of the code will be written in the way of how developer B wants it to be written and that might make developer A’s life harder over time.
