to you, to me, it reads nicely, and thus the issue -- editors should have built in formatters that don't actually edit source code, but offer a view

To me, that reads fine, but it has lost the property elevation wanted, which was that it's easy to compare the values assigned to any particular parameter across multiple calls. In your version you can only read one call at a time.

Err..I find the short-line version easier to read. Esp if you need to horizontally scroll.

This is why a Big Dictator should just make a standard. Everyone who doesn't like the standard approach just gets used to it.
