I'm that guy on the other side of the fence. I view unbracked IFs 
as an essential part of concise code readability. Brackets are 
the symbolization of a block of logic, meaning multiple steps of 
logic. Being forced to express "this is a block of code" for just 
a single statement after an IF seems bloaty and hurts scanning 
through code. I also feel reducing line numbers is something to 
strive for as long as no readability is sacrifices.
