says who, though? i've never used that style in my life, and it's not in our code style (https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-react-sdk/blob/master/code_style.md), and I don't understand why we are enforcing lint rules which are more extreme than our code style!

I've never seen that, actually. We really ought to update the linting configuration to reflect that.

Yes. just to be clear: linting is meant to fix bugs and help legibility in terms of enforcing a consistent style - but there is no benefit in making it needlessly over-restrictive (especially based on personal taste, when there's already a formal style). I don't think anyone's eyes are ever going jar at where the { goes after an multiline if clause, so in the end it just burns time having to fix up unnecessary linting errors. In other words: we should introduce linting where it helps us, not slows us down, and certainly not for the sake of arbitrary consistency.
As Emerson said (and I think the old MX Coding Style guide as written by vdh & myself about 15 years ago, which you have more of an excuse not to have read ;): A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.

+1 to having the lint less strict. It's getting tiring to have an "appease the linter" commit on every PR.

I don't find it that bad, but then I do have the linting built into my IDE, so there's no extra "appeasing" step in general.
