I agree 100%. Anyone using anything to indent other than tabs should be
shot. Space signifies separation, tabs signify layout. You can move
tabs. Tabs are fantastic.

People who use two spaces _and_ don't cuddle braces are the worst kind
and produce the most unreadable, messy code. That's not opinion, that's
fact*, you write better code when you use tabs (i.e., ASCII#9, not the
tab button to issues sequences of spaces).

Cheers,

Alex.

*: well, an Alex fact anyway ;)
