 ### Classes
 Classes have some special formatting rules applied to them:
 - Classes follow the following sequence: CTOR, DTOR, methods, variables
-- Class CTOR variable initializers are listed one-per-line with a leading comma (or colon for the first).
-- `public`, `private` and `protected` keywords are not indented and are at the same level as the class identifier statement.

-### Splitting overly-long lines
+### Long line wrapping
 If statements on a single line become overly long, they should be split into multiple lines:
 - Binary operators (including ternary) must be left on their original lines if the line break happens around the operator. The second line should start in the same column as the start of the expression in the first line.
 - Lists of variables (e.g. when calling or declaring a function) should be split so variables are listed one-per-line, where second and subsequent lines start in the same column as the first variable listed, even if more than one variable would fit on the line segment until the wrapping column.
