If automated scripts exist to change all the code to that new

I think nobody is saying we should reformat all code at once, just
that agreeing on a given style allows us to eventually automate it (it
also makes humans more likely to be consistent).

Try writing a regex for the proposal and make sure to separate out
all the various __<foo> attributes into their proper locations...

It does not need to be a regex...
