Nice idea.

I took the survey. A few comments:

The early questions show only one sample option. If I remember my survey design fundamentals, there will likely be a bias in the results for the answer that matches the sample. This is especially confounding because, as I interpret it, the sample shown is also the probably-most-common preference.

Later questions have display samples of A, B, C, ... form. Some of the samples aren't labelled. Minor oversight that the audience should be able to handle, but it's a source of error.

I'd really like to be able to see the compiled results. Downloading the rulesets is great, but a browser-digestible form with response weightings would be much more generally useful.

Also, I can't see the MAS from my iPad, so I can't see the product page. Some details on the website would be awesome. I think I get it, it's an Xcode plugin to style-lint my code. How much does it cost? Can it autofix, a la gofmt?

Even Apple's sample code is full of stylistic inconsistencies, some of which are distant echoes of K&R vs ANSI C. I like style guides, especially those that I can customize to my liking.
