This is debatable. The structure of a program is the code. The way this code is displayed on a screen is the presentation. A program don't need any tabs or indentation to run, because tabs do not control anything. The code could be all on one line and run nevertheless because its structure is correct. Visual structure == presentation and tabs or spaces are part of that structure, not part of the structure of the program itself. And for what it's worth, I prefer tab over spaces in my own code.
