Putting the opening curly brace of a code block on the same line that defines the conditions the code block will run under is bonkers?
There's an asymmetry to it that always left me uncomfortable.
If we're judging purely on readability then I think Allman probably has the edge, here. You can see at a glance where the encasement starts or ends in a vertical column on the far left. Of course, that's a moot point if the programmer's color coding is set up to where it is obvious.
