I basically 100% agree with this and this is the editor env I wish I could live in.

I think the debate still exists because editors/langs don't work like this and you end up having to compromise one way or another. Obviously, if we could do really fancy code folding / inlining / condensing based on arbitrary user defined filters everyone would just write whatever they wanted.

I guess code review might be the only place where people would still complain, depending on how that looked.
