I'm that guy on the other side of the fence. I view unbracked
IFs as an essential part of concise code readability. Brackets
are the symbolization of a block of logic, meaning multiple
steps of logic. Being forced to express "this is a block of
code" for just a single statement after an IF seems bloaty and
hurts scanning through code. I also feel reducing line numbers
is something to strive for as long as no readability is
sacrifices.
