If you disagree with respect to "consistent style is a major aid" then you can ~trivially simulate inconsistent style by making a branch of your code and intentionally adding lint to it, for example by randomly replacing 40% of your indentation with your least favor option.

It might be a programming language thing, but I've found the Rails way of approaching things to be the most productive. You have a rough idea of what things should look like but you don't get uptight about [quotation, optional brackets, etc] it's a mostly consistent style.

as someone who has done work on multiple code bases that contained millions of lines of code and were a decade+ in age, this is sooooooo true

I dunno. Rails is decade old and ending arguments with linters seems like an approach that "scales" the way that Google's support "scales" it kinda pushes the human problem into code. I prefer the Rails codebase to any Go one, and every Go project follows a linter.
