There are no words to say how much I hate it when people put spaces in front of the brackets of function calls. No one ever can tell me that this would be easier to read...8

If you are reviewing pull requests to your code base, what aspects do you focus?
I am asking, because a colleague of mine most of the time complains about minor code style issues, like the following:
"why is that method static, it belongs to the object. I am not used to static methods, please adjust"
"the methods are not arranged in a standardized breadth-first order"
"Please use that other kind of initialization..."
Those nit-picks make me crazy sometimes. Is it just me?
I mean, her reviews also contain valuable content, but those small complains about coding style feel like "I did not found anything else but I have to". ^^5
