and I'm the guilty one. It is a table and when adding a lot of entries
the ", {" alone in the line for each entry consumes a lot of vertical
waste space, so I decided to merge them. I considered merging the "}"
too which would balance it, but looked nice to have at least a separator
between each entry.

As we add more entries we may decide another format for the table.
For this series I think the pending decision is more on the UABI side:
do we want to support this for older platforms knowing that future ones
will have this setting changed?
