I tend to agree. Quoting styles are controversial in many languages. This is 
true even aside from choice of quote characters. For example in French « is 
widely agreed to be the left quote, but some follow it with a quarter-em space, 
some with a non-breaking space, some with an ordinary space, and some with no 
space at all.
