Really? I have never seen bugs in C related to indentation. I have seen plenty related to braces. What I have seen is bugs hidden by the indentation not matching the block structure. Wrong indentation in Python *is* a bug. There's no other visual signal to hide the error. > on dozens of occasions. Being able to recover has been nice.

And if your block is too big to see the structure easily then that just means that some code should be factored out to a method. -- D'Arcy J.M.
