I very rarely disagree with Jimbo, but on this matter my mind is
perfectly clear. The wish to micro-regulate small and irrelevant
details of what other people do (or, in this case, write) is entirely
deserving of the term "Style Nazi" - for surely it is not the term
which is offensive, it is the behaviour which gives rise to it and
makes it apt. 

But no-one here would seriously wish to behave like that. 

Would they?
