    That’s good to know. Don’t know how I didn’t know this. Been writing JS since 2000. Always just used them I guess. Ecmascripts look funny to me without them

      Fair enough, I like it better without but I don’t have a strong preference and have no issue adapting to whatever the style of the repo is.

      I learned about it researching tools to automatically enforce formatting style and came across StandardJS, which eliminates them by default.

        I can see the benefit of matching style when working with others. I only code for myself and never had to worry about conformity for project consistency.

        It is good to learn new things.

        I’m sure I have some coding habitats that would annoy others.
