I think there is a (hidden) cost of having pure cleanup patches:
they make backporting fixes harder (across the cleanup)

stylistic changes must have a clear benefit, readability is subjective, 
consistency per se doesn't buy anything

the discussion how code should be written in the first place is separate
from the discussion what is worth fixing up lateron (IMHO)
