> The problem with advice like these is you will encounter deranged developers that become obsessive about such things and make the code base ugly trying to implement dozens of style rules
That's more of a "deranged developer" problem than a problem with the guidelines themselves. E.g. I think his `getTableName` example is quite sensible, but also one which some dogmatic engineers would flag and code-golf down to the one-liner.
