Yes, and I think we should fix the tool to be less picky. Coding standards are fine when they are dealing with actual code style. But they start to look less like coding standards and more like spaces-in-comments standards. The next logical step is switching to Whitespace from PHP: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitespace_(programming_language)
This seems like a bit of an over-reaction to me. The coding standards are _not_ difficult to adhere to and give the code consistency.
Exactly, and it would be even easier to adhere to coding standards if actual coding standards errors were not buried in dozens of bogus "errors" produced by poorly calibrated tool. See my point?
