For me, it's tabs-vs-spaces, but doesn't every codebase have its own peeing-against-the-wind patterns that are necessary because of some historical reason or another? What's the way to mitigate against this trend towards the center other than throwing up my hands and admitting defeat?

Absolutely not. Every codebase has some nuances but majority folows very similar rules and patterns. There is nothing to mitigate just don’t expect that something trained on A would suddenly be good at B
