How could Julian ever gain concensus if people like you start jumping
down people's throats any time someone tries to make a change.

Ordinarily I would say that one should just make a change and see how
well it's received, but I can understand why people would not be
interested in putting up with this sort of abuse.

I personally don't think that any change is needed, other than
recognizing some flexibility in the layout of complex data
structures.  The world will not come to an end if someone uses two
tabs to align fields instead of one.
