Sure, but even allowing for that, I don't see how David's statement
could reasonably be interpreted to imply that he thinks *everyone*
does anything.
Not everyone writes coding guidelines, but some do.
Not everyone writes *to* coding guidelines (i.e., writes code that
conforms to some guidelines) but some do.
Presenting a chunk of code that presumably was not written to conform
to any particular guidelines does not refute anything that anyone
actually said or implied.
