Using space is just misplaced hubris.  it just says 'oh, look, I'm so
important, other people should bow to me and view my indentation in
exactly the manor that I want'.

Just the opposite of team work.

Tabs on the other hand say 'Use whatever tab spacing you want -
whatever is most comfortable for you.'
