It has always been an in-house rule wherever I have worked. The reason is 
that schematics are often reduced in size for publication (even when it is 
only for the in-house servicing department) and having joining wires as a T 
junction always does mean that a wire crossing another is never confused as 
a junction.

Yes using CAD packages takes the uncertainty out of generating the 
schematic, but the rule is still applied for human reasons.

For the original poster, I am quite happy with the capacitor/crystal 
arrangement in the second schematic, but would typically not have the long 
'wire' from the processor supply bypass capacitor - I would use a seperate 
earth symbol for that. The two capacitors for the crystal would then have 
their own earth symbol. The other beef I would have is that for unpolarised 
capacitors I expect two parallel lines, the symbol you have used I 
assocoaiate with polarised capacitors.
