Keeping bench simple and focused on a specific behaviour is all what is needed 
imo.

I disagree with the rule of "100 LOC limit".

What if such language formatted using its proper style rule has 103 LOC?

Does it really care? One can see the LOC and exam the code for its elegance. 
just one clic. That is enougth for me.
