Computer science is not a field in which learners can reason about best practises for themselves. There is so much to learn that most of the habits we adopt are just articles of faith.
For example, it took me 15 years to ask myself if I was really happy using camelCase. When I thought about the issue for myself, it was glaringly clear that snake_case is easier to read and reason about.
If light color schemes are truly easier to read, it benefits the industry to have people advocating for it.
Very true! That undercuts my choice to use snake_case, but strengthens my overall argument to advocate for light color schemes (assuming they are indeed better).
