I have experienced annoyances with other people's code that don't have
any consistency whatsoever. Most of the time when I begin working on a
new project the majority of the code is probably single quotes.
Perhaps the reason for most people choosing single quotes is because,
yes, it doesn't require holding shift. What bothers me the most is how
other people can have code bases that have absolutely no consistency
at all. It's like they copy and paste code from others and not even
notice there is inconsistent quote styling.

Clearly this is a very subjective topic and since James and myself
prefer double quotes, because visually it looks better we take the
extra keystroke hit (has never been an issue for me).

I definitely hear you when you talk about bringing in third-party code
because you need to modify something and their coding style is
completely different. I try my best to avoid by finding other ways to
include source where it isn't a part of the project; which ends up
being better anyways.

Oh, and don't get me started on the Django's community chronic tuple disease...
