I, for more than one, do not.

To me, the latter method is much more like POV-Ray than the first 
method. I learned POV first, so I guess that's why I do it.

Since most of the code I write is never seen by another poor soul, you 
won't find me bending backwards to tailor it for the "posh" crowd.

I kinda feel bad for the one guy who had to see my C++ code. At least it 
was relatively short :)
