This reminds me of Paul Graham's Five Questions About Language Design (https://paulgraham.com/langdes.html):

"When languages are designed for other people, it's always a specific group of other people: people not as smart as the language designer. So you get a language that talks down to you."

The same applies to these style standards. I agree with his third point in that article:

"3. Give the Programmer as Much Control as Possible."
