Agreed, also on the count that writing idiomatic code is, in my opinion, much more beneficial than having to refer to a third party style-guide to grok a non-idiomatic flavour of it.

The obvious benefit is that knowledge can then be applied to any other project using the language idiomatically, and not as if it were 30 years old. Conversely, code to the third party style guide, and struggle to understand the many things that don't adhere to it.
