Yes, that doesn't mean standards don't exist, nor that good and bad writing styles don't exist.

The very best part about English writing standards is that there are so many to pick from!
At the end of the day, it really is subjective: A reader either likes a style and/or finds that it is conducent to conveying meaning, or they do not.
(Speaking of unlikable styles, I'm just going to take the liberty to interpret the name-calling as your resignation on this matter. Have a nice day, comrade.)
