I don't think we could have a style even if we wanted to. The problem is there are too many users with different settings and too many programs that post schematics. For example: people post shots of ...

I personally don't use CircuitLab and wouldn't use anything else you add either. That's because I'm quite comfortable with Eagle and have created some scripts and procedures for getting schematics ...

CircuitLab schematic integration: we still get huge diagrams after 3 years, any news or workarounds?

Vendor provided schematics without reference designators
You are getting hung up on the source of the schematic. That is irrelevant to us. We care that schematics be properly done, not how that is achieved. Since we are here to talk about the circuit, ...
