Erik Darling takes a tour of the land mine garden:
When you think about formatting code, you probably think primarily of organizing a single query so that it’s inoffensive to civilized society.
But you should also apply this to your code as a whole, too. People who use words wrong will call this “holistic”.
I won’t get too deep into level of agreement here (probably about 60-70% of Erik’s list I can agree on), but I do argue that the best standards are the ones your team agrees on. It’s frustrating seeing hairball messes of T-SQL. Especially when developers’ non-SQL code looks a lot neater.
