This resonates hard with me. At work I slave away under the edicts of the biome linter and I haven’t been able to articulate very well why I hate it so much. I think it comes down to your neighborhood analogy, it feels like consistency is enforced not just on the outside of my house, but inside as well, and I am effectively blocked from making any design decisions it does not agree with. Its opinions are not necessarily bad, but at least half of them I would have preferred to treat as guidelines. (Yes yes, I can //biome-ignore but that is not my idea of a cozy living room nook).It feels good to see someone finally make this argument on the internet.
