I will emphasize that such a sweeping commit that adds extra churn to main
right when re@ is working on .0 release is not helpful at all. Right now re@
and anyone else who cares about 15.0-RELEASE would prefer no extra divergence
betweem main and stable/15.

If I a commit a bug fix right now around same lines that were touched by this
commit, this bug fix will not be cherry-pickable to stable/15 and releng/15.0.

P.S. I'm in favor of sweeping stylistic changes, but few weeks before
branching a stable, not few weeks after.
