Yes, as opposed to at the end. Hm, given that this is justifying asking
people to use named initializers, maybe we should also say that they help
with code readability when many pointers need to be null? Also, I'm
guessing that sometimes there are reasons to keep a logical grouping of
fields together? (I'm pretty sure we're not optimizing for storage layout
here given the existing order of fields in the structure.)

more consistently using at-signs for Doxygen commands.

not adopt a rule forcing them without tooling to convert and enforce. Does
that sound okay?
Yes. I'm happy if we adopt a guideline (not requirement) to prefer at-
signs for Doxygen commands in new Doxygen comments.
