If the "=" were nestable inside parentheses, so that
one could write declarations like this:
(double d
= foo (xyzzy,
bar (plugh)));
then indeed it would be a nitpick. But "=" is not
nestable or parenthesizable when it's part of the punctuation
for an initializer. Indenting styles designed for the
nestable and parenthesizable infix operator "=" are not
necessarily the best when "=" is used for other purposes.
