I have an over-hyphenated writing-style as well. Probably my Germanness.

There is not reason whatsoever to hyphenate "writing style".
In this example I used the hyphen for comedic effect. But this is a actual sentence I wrote in an older post:

> What's the competition in the gaming-capable pre-built mini-PC category

I think that's probably-satire.
I opine that over-hyphenation adds clarity.
