I think it's necessary to keep the style consistent and to constrain 
everyone to do so in the future.However, if the DTS changes greatly, I 
think it is possible to require the new print to be consistent and the 
historical part to remain unchanged.Because the uniform change is also 
Xiaoyun's suggestion, we think the opinion is reasonable, but we are not 
sure how much it will affect DTS.
