It harms readability. Don't try to be different just for the sake of being different, especially when you think "it can't harm anything" aka "there is no strong reason to do so (or not to)". Instead, help others by making sure that their eyes do not have to get distracted for such meaningless differences from existing parts of the system. Thanks.
