> The company's codebase is not your space

That’s one possible way to look at “the company’s code.” Another one is that you’re in “that” code six (or more) hours a day and it’s usually written by someone else.

I find code style standards that a team as a whole has compromised upon (aka consistency) a reasonable approach to “average comfort.”
