    I need to ask how many (alleged) professionals will wig out if someone questions their coding style?

    Thanks for the humor, Cat! Those are reasonable guidelines. Similar guidelines could be used by managers, directors, VP’s, but never presidents, when accepting feedback.
    I would say that code reviews for the sake of code reviews are wasteful, but they’re very helpful with regard to sharing business knowledge, technical approaches, and, where appropriate, social skills. :)
