Example:
pub fn main() !void {
const x: u8 = 1 +1;
_ = x;
}
Will produce the following error message:
error: binary operator '+' has whitespace on one side, but not the other
const x: u8 = 1 +1;
^
What’s the reason this is a compiler error?
is Andrew not wanting to read poorly formatted code.
Here is discussion for it Proposal: Require whitespace on both sides of - or neither · Issue #7399 · ziglang/zig · GitHub

To ensure that binary operators in Zig never look like the repulsive output that the Go formatter forces upon us.
Reasonable minds can disagree, but I am in the camp that opinionated and mandatory formatting is a good thing (as long as I agree with it, otherwise it is obviously a bad thing).
“Scriptio continua” vs “my lexer is really good”
