It harms readability.  Don't try to be different just for the sake
of being different, especially when you think "it can't harm
anything" aka "there is no strong reason to do so (or not to)".
Instead, help others by making sure that their eyes do not have to
get distracted for such meaningless differences from existing parts
of the system.

Thanks.
