do people really complain about significant whitespace?

So you can't see at a glance how many blocks were closed.  That's fair.
 Add a little chalk mark to the against column.

Oddly, I never used to use K & R until I was a longtime Python
programmer.  Then I wanted to get those redundant braces as far out of
the way as reasonable; hence K & R.  Maybe someday I'll take up a
LISP-like style and put the closing brace on the last line of the
block.  (No, I won't.)
