I get this (and alluded to as much in my first message in this
thread, in fact). My point was that _when_ you're to the point of
evaluating switching to a wholly different style guide it would be
great to take such concerns into account. It also serves as a
cautionary tale to other newly forming projects (outside OpenStack)
who may at some point stumble across this discussion. Please choose
free tools at every opportunity, I sure wish we had in this case.
