I noted in #3903 that the formatting of generators was recently changed based on an issue (#7028) that had a total of just 2 up-votes (excluding the OP's).
I was under the impression that such changes would require far more consensus and motivation. There are issues with many more votes that have not yet even been considered.
I'm opening this issue to suggest that the relevant changes be reverted until a proper process has been followed.
FWIW, the original arguments didn't seem that compelling to me, but ultimately this is a very subjective matter and there isn't really a right or wrong answer. However, the change should only be made if there are either objective reasons to do so, or a really high percentage of votes in favour of the change.
I'd like to avoid discussing the pros and cons in this issue, as that can be done elsewhere.
