I feel it's better to make a computer do code linting, than to do this in a PR review. Nobody minds when a computer picks nits, but when people do, it's taken personally 😉

The review should focus on the logic, that the PR makes sense, and then run it though a linter for code style.

Bonus points to the reviewer for lint instructions or offer an editor.conf for the project.
