I never got used to having begin not on a newline. Even despite having
used modula2 for use (but M2 has no single line blocks to disambiguate).

Moreover, it rarely pays to use a convention different from the norm. (and
the norm on Delphi is begin on a newline afaik)

I actually started like that because it matched the M2 style I'm used to
better, but gave it up later. Unworkable.
