If something can be configured, this opens up infinite possibilities for discussions on how it should be configured. The fact that you even ASK if you should use the tall style means that you are considering the POSSIBILITY of using it that way.
Put it this way, if it is technically impossible to develop a car that have the color red, we would not be discussing or entertaining what color the next car should have. It would be red, end of story. It doesn't matter if we like red or not, it just has to be. end of story.
Hot take: stop being authoritarian with code styles, perchance? You are not so wise as to determine what is clean code for the entire world, and the ego required to believe that you are is beyond astounding. And we're still having these discussions despite unconfigurably prescriptive formatters. This idea that such formatters end these discussions is just demonstrably false... you are literally taking part in one of these discussions.

Yes, the code looks awful. end of story.
