Can we get back to programming?
With respect to the vast majority of log messages, nobody confounded by
punctuation is truly trying to analyze a problem!
And nobody confounded by whitespace and coding style is truly
interesting in writing properly functioning code!
I supposed you meant "interested." Proper coding style doesn't make for
proper code. Arguably, it aids when reading code, and that's why we
mostly stick to agreed standards; but it's hard to get worked up over a
dot at the end of a log message. In cases where it really does matter,
we make sure it's right; but demanding that every message meets some
unilateral idea of what is right is zealotry.
