2 & 3. I want to omit space after if and for. Since if and for are functions in R, not keywords, I suggest that there should not be a space before the opening parentheses.
Wrong. They are part of language constructs (and they _are_ keywords, not names, that's why ?for won't work). The function calls are `if`(fee, {foo}, {fie}) and something rebarbative for `for`(....).
Besides, both constructs are harder to read without the spaces.
