IIUC, it feels like the boolean should be named `UseClassKWInTemplateTemplates`, and it shouldn't have anything to do with `Keep`ing the human's choice. If the human feeds you some C++17 code using `template<template<class> typename T>` and asks you to format it as C++14 with `TAS_Typename`, I think it would be quite appropriate to output `template<template<typename> class T>`. (Change `class` to `typename` because the human asked for `TAS_Typename`; change `typename` to `class` because C++14 implies `UseClassKWInTemplateTemplates`.)
Anyway, this should have a unit test too.
