But the authors won't do it.

What I proposed is in between: the code is reformatted *only* if it fails
more than X number of checkstyle tests.

This way if the code you write is mainly in line, it will not be changed.

If not , it will.

This would solve your problem, since code that doesn't break (the loose
standards we have) will remain untouched.
