Bug: Developers are not following their own standards

[eluser]victorche[/eluser]
Quote from the Codeigniter's userguide:

Use of || is discouraged as its clarity on some output devices is low (looking like the number 11 for instance). && is preferred over AND but either are acceptable, and a space should always precede and follow !.

A recent commit on GitHub (from ericbarnes, CI developer):

elseif ( ! $this->cur_page AND $CI->uri->segment($this->uri_segment) != $base_page)

And here is an interesting comment on GitHub by philsturgeon (another CI developer) also...

Style Guide says it prefers AND over && generally.

The question:
Why you're creating rules and standards, when you're not following them?!?

The result:
It is bad for the community, the followers and the developers itself...

Coming bit late to this discussion... But I do see a problem with CI and ||, &&, AND and OR.

Style Guide says that it's a matter of style.

But PHP manual says it's a matter of precedence. || and OR are not interchangeable!

Precedence in CodeIgniter's style is resolved by adding parenthesis around conditions, when needed.

Also, these inconsistencies (and many more) have already been corrected in the develop branch on GitHub.
