Why do you want to force people to whatever style you want to read in?

There is a strong case for having one style: namely that now it becomes easy to understand aspects of a program at a glance (e.g. structure of flow, where you can gloss over for now, and where you have complexity) and also helps identify errors and on right away. Sometimes it's imperfect, but consistency is more important than "looks pretty".

Besides, if we're talking about the hacker mindset:

1) there are other languages

2) you can do amazingly complex and deep things with your brain, but you can't adapt to a style?

3) consistency and correctness is more important than "what I whimsically decide is neat looking today, no matter how many errors it is hiding".
