Then he'd probably lose his mind over stuff like:

(
   print
      )
      "Hello World"

print      [[
Hello World]]

*lol*

In any case, given that whitespace is not significant in most
programming languages, and that your examples clearly work, I'd say
the burden is on him to show where in the manual it says superfluous
whitespace is verboten.
