I was going to wait to do this, but I was starting on something else in here and I kept hitting format by habit since I'm honestly just used to always having it. I think it's safe to say that most Scala developers will be used to the default style that scalafmt gives you, so I'd like to propose that we add this in along with scalafix to organize imports. One huge concern is always that changes like this make it hard to get a good `git blame`, however with modern git, this really isn't an issue anymore.
