It's only the former (existing) format which has benefits at all to me:
- cognitively *I* can much easier glance through to "find" something.
Because my eyes just have to scan up/down on the same character column
- It's not alphabetically sorted (which just is important to "find"
things for a human, IMHO). No problem! Good text editors allow to sort a
selected text area alphabetically. Good look trying that with the group
syntax; this requires manual labor work or tooling.
