Really formatting wars are really stupid. ASI is like indentation, it is trivial to write a program that converts between the two representations. The last time we had an issue about this at work, someone just wrote a pre-commit hook that sets the indentation to be standard without changing the parse tree (it actually asserts the parse tree is the same).
Now you can code any way you want, but no more white-space changes cluttering up the history of files. This is the worst type of holy war because it not only doesn't matter much (which is true of any) but there is a technological solution that the engineers involved are all ignoring.
