Wrong. There are things which are simply bad ideas.
E.g. in this case, "Egyptian"-style braces definitely make your code
more compact,
I.e. you see where everything is.
but separate-line opening braces definitely make it easier
to see where scopes begin and end.
This is the only argument I have heard in favour of doing this, but it
is not actually valid. This critique might apply to Lisp style.
