I don't find it strange at all. The clearer the code is, the better.
If you can understand what a line of code is doing without having
to look at the surrounding code, all the better. (Sometimes this is
just not possible, of course, but if with a simple change you can
make it so, why not?)

There we go again with the brevity argument.

My disdain for overt brevity has not appeared out of the blue. It's the
consequence of years of having to have read tens of thousands of lines
of code written by other people.

Length does not matter. Clarity does.

*Maybe* if what 'auto' expands to is *extremely* clear to see from the
code, then *perhaps* it's acceptable. However, my point is that 'auto'
is being *overused* a lot. In other words, in many situations where
it's *not* clear at all what it's expanding to (often requiring going
to an entirely different file to see what it actually is. IDEs help
with this, but IMO code should be readable without the help of any
IDEs.)

Then, in the future, as you further develop the code, you add a couple
dozen lines before that loop. Will you then change that 'auto' to the
actual type? Unlikely.

It's not unnecessary repetition if it makes the code easier to understand.

You write the same words in your English prose again and again and again.
You don't see that as a problem. Why do you find it a problem in code?

No, because if you keep it stupid, then your code will be stupid, and
nobody will understand it.

Keep your code smart, not stupid.

Conversely, if you accidentally write the wrong type when refactoring
code, subsequent 'auto' keywords may hide your mistake, while explicit
types could have caught it immediately.
