I appreciate the feedback, no offence taken. I'm an analyst so I often find the leading comma useful when I'm testing something and want to quickly comment a column out but I take your point.
And I agree, I should have used CTEs for this query, I was just trying to save lines of code which had the unintended consequence of quite an ugly query. However I did want to use it as an example of indentation being useful to make it slightly easier to read. Although perhaps I'm the only one who thinks so.

I greatly appreciate the constructive criticism.
