I basically don't care.  I've never seen their presence or absence have any
significant effect on anything.  In my own code I tend to have them, but out of
habit rather than for a reason.

I can't see a reason for caring either way, so I can't see a reason to even
standardise on whether not they should be there.  It just doesn't matter AFAICT,
so I'd be happiest not caring about it (both as a developer and as a reviewer).
That is, not only do I not mind if we have them or not, I don't mind if we're
inconsistent.
