Just because they can, doesn't mean they should; how many comments in your code reviews are about code style?

In mine, it used to be... at least half, because I was anal about code style and consistency and all we had at the time was ESLint, which only did partial code stile.

Nowadays, it's none. If you need to worry about code style in code reviews, use a tool.
