OTOH, programming for the human and not for the computer, included caring about presentation. I could say there's nothing right with the model either - a non-issue, personal preference.

... An older presentation issue is the tabs versus spaces flamewar. At least that one has burnt out. Maybe because of the rise of IDE's?

My guess would be not IDEs but autoformatting tools, especially when communties like Go all follow one style.
