FWIW I'm of the same opinion - I've yet to see an electronic circuit schematic
that doesn't segment all the nodes into horizontal and vertical segments.
Ok, maybe the analogy is poor, because in a circuit schematic, a line
represents a single node, and not data flow, so a better example would be
block diagrams or flow charts.
I think history has proved that clearly, most types of charts that connect
boxes together are read more comfortably if the connections are composed of
vertically and horizontally alligned segments.
I think this is obviously a wouldbenicetohavebutwhohasthetimetoimplementit
issue.
