I view .dir-locals as a simple way to share project-wide settings among
developers, for settings that implement conventions that the project
follows.

I was thinking of it as something to help developers get started (as in:
the editor will follow some conventions without you having to worry too
much about it), but I also understand and respect the desire to not be
“forced” and to remain in control.
