Sure. I'm not discussing that it is possible, or desirable. The former
is true, and the latter is a matter of opinion.
I'm just saying that it is absurd to defend that CRLF is not the
convention on Windows, because it is. We could agree that it is a
convention worth changing, though.

That can be very useful, if your tools don't grok LF eols. Nicer than
having to convert files by hand, if there are many.

Notepad is useless with LF-only files of more than one line.
