You have at least two independent changes relative to Dscho's

 (1) Show line breaks more prominently by avoiding "\n\n" and

     like.

 (2) Ignore the usual indentation rule and have messages start at
     the left end of the source.

Which one are you saying "makes sense" to?  Both?

I guess both can be grouped together into one theme: match the way
the final output and the source code look like.

Yes, that summarizes it pretty well.

I agree with that motivation, but I decided to go about it in a way that
is more in line with the existing source code:

Much better! Thank you.
