> If I'm reading this correctly, you think juniors should live without formatters because they need to learn to format manually?

You did not interpret what I said correctly. Not that you had much to work with, but that small wall of text is based on a major extrapolation.

I said completely relying on these tools is doing them disservice. How do you train your muscle memory when the tools are doing everything for you. I, for one, believe proper formatting is a sign of care and it's really easy to spot when someone is not paying attention.

Go on, mod me down harder.


Only an fool would waste time on manual code formatting. The editor should automatically apply the organization's formatting rules. No muscle memory is required.
