Less typing, less ugliness. :)
This is the way I've always done it and it's much nicer to read. Same for quoting, use only when needed.

If you use braces only when necessary, it will not be consistent - you have braces sometimes and other times you don't. I thought coding style was about consistency.
you can apply "only when needed" consistently.
