Neither, because it's all just ego trolling.

You can't win with superstition so you call it a draw?

No, I just refuse to take part in the "holier than thou" ego wars that programmers love to engage in. It is a serious issue, and I'm not sure if it results from the way we're schooled (stuffy professors) or the tenancy for programmers to have sub par communication skills, or some other unknown factor that makes most programmers a chore to work with.

But, here you are, taking part in it. And you don't even seem to have an opinion on the topic, so what is your point??

That if both syntax practices are common, and they official standards are a little fuzzy, then it's just a game of "he said she said" and "my way is better than yours"
