That last line is the solution though, choose a linter, enforce all style arguments, so they are just the way the code is. No arguments.

Every single project I work on is setup with prettier. With Java there is a maven plugin that runs it on compile. And with ts projects it is part of the built pipeline.

I wish I could use prettier for Abap, reminds me how much I like having an opinionated formatter. I don’t like wasting time formatting code manually.

Abap has one formatter that is not very opinionated, and lets way more to much wierd spacing through, especially for a language that is as verbose as abap.
