It's possible for code formatters to automatically change it either way, but it's not fair to require people to set that up.

IMO, the ideal is to have a config for editors that automatically code formats it, so individual users can set their code formatter up however they want, and before they start editing they can format it to how they like, and before it goes in to the repository it gets broken down to the AST and formatted according to the projects style guide

It's fine, I just prefer regular ones because that's what I'm used to.

Also, backslash is the common escape character, so if in Linux, somehow you have a file with a newline in its name, or you want to write the name of a file with a space in its name without quotes, you would do cat new\nline or rm spaced\ name.

So when I see a backslash it just looks wrong to me and I wanted to be dramatic.

His channel is all stealth camping in different plqces. Like one is in a park in a city, one is in the wooded thicket between two directions of an interstate, one time was sleeping in a car parked outside a police station, etc. Just a stealth camping youtuber.

This one was just extremely weird and cracked me up.
