 RSpec/HookArgument:
   Description: Prefer explicit :each argument, matching existing module's style

 Style/BlockDelimiters:
   Description: Prefer braces for chaining. Mostly an aesthetical choice. Better to
     be consistent then.

+Style/BracesAroundHashParameters:

     on complex expressions for better readability, but seriously consider breaking
     it up.

     diffs, and re-ordering nicer.
