Or maybe it just seems so because those that want a change are those that will speak up. I prefer tabs. If I want the text in the 25th column it's just 3 tab keys and start typing. I don't have to count out pressing the space bar 24 times and then wondering if it really was 24. I find python code really annoying because it is spaces only. But then again, maybe I don't count.
