I’m not sure if I’m understanding you correctly, but how on earth would a pull request even make it to the review state if it fails to lint in the pipeline?

I sort of agree with GP in that the discussions are a waste of time. I also agree with you that you should simply automate it through tools. Styling doesn’t have to be a democracy or about personal preference, all styles work, it’s all about picking one and then forcing everyone to use it. Of course you do it in a much more involving process than what I make it sound like here, but ultimately someone with decision making powers is going to have to lock down the process so no further time is wasted on it.
