The reason why I came up with this is that many code lines are wildly broken at
seemingly random locations.
That makes the code harder to read.
I'll show you what I mean with
good:
if (some.getX().statementA() && some.getY().statementB()) {..
good:
if (some.getX().statementA()
&& some.getY().statementB()) {..
bad:
if (some.getX("bla" +
"blub").statementA(
13) && some.getY
("oh").statementB(
"gosh")) {..
Of course in practice our commands are longer, but similar 'unattractive' to
read ;)
Most times forced by the line length limit.
