To me, yes, the former is better than the later. Different strokes for
different folks.

For me the extra indentation is noisy and ugly.

It's all debatable IMO :)

For my taste, I do not like that the "Modifier and Type" column stretches
so far from the "Method and Description" column, it makes them feel
detached on a wide screen. But I'm not going to fiddle with CSS to "fix" it
because it's not broken, it's just a personal preference...
