I see the points for VCS and non-monospace fonts, minor as they may be, but readability is absolutely a matter of choice.
While we're on the matter of user prefereces and numbers: Most style guides recommend spaces as lined out in my other post.
>Google, Microsoft, Apache and NASA for C-family languages, Crockford and almost every other web-related style guide I've ever seen recommend the use of spaces. Apple is a notable exception.
That doesn't make them right, but I'd like to know how you came up with the "many of us" in the first place, because there are far more developers who use spaces (https://ukupat.github.io/tabs-or-spaces/ https://ukupat.github.io/tabs-or-spaces/), and it's not even close.
- scrollaway 10y ago"Many of us" doesn't imply "a majority of us". This statement isn't contradictory and is backed up by the data you linked: "Many of us use tabs. Many of us use spaces. Some of us use form-feed.. bloody nutters!"
