There's been general consensus around this for a while now. For example, both mfbt/ and xpcom/ have had big restylings happen in the past year to get them onto standard Mozilla style. But we have a lot of code not in that style and fixing it is tedious when done by hand, and in my experience none of the automated tools do a good enough job, e.g. they end up doing *many* unnecessary whitespace changes, and they can't (AFAIK) do some of the changes like making sure all parameters have |aFoo| form, etc. (At this point I expect people to push back against my claims that the automated tools aren't up to snuff. If you really think automated tools can do a good enough job, please run one and submit patches fixing up some files. I'd be happy to help review.)
