The only problem with this is when in a team and different members work on 
the same bits of code. Can you imagine a class written in two or three 
different bracing styles is like?! Your team HAS to agree on some 
standards and stick to them. Some of these might go against your own 
personal grain but such is the price of teamwork and consistent code.

So no, a free-for-all is not always good advice.
