I think that specifying exactly how to indent continuation lines, or
even whether or not to indent them, is way too controlling for my
tastes. I don't believe it makes that much difference. Like the brace
wars, if there actually was any objective, meaningful, consistent
benefit of one style over the others, there would be no argument about
it. Instead, it's all subjective, vague, and far from consistent.
