Sure, but you are using a different sort of consistency.
My consistency is to initialise as close to where the variable is
used. If I need to change the initialisation for a section of code,
it is right there.
That said, I prefer to have my declarations near the related
code. I dislike languages that require all declarations before all
code in a block.

If they are all initialised in declarations, then the reader will
have to determine if that initialisation is really it.
