You only say that because you're MIXING indent styles. Tabs first, ALWAYS, one tab is one level of indent. go fmt uses the UNIX lineage of defaulting to 8 spaces converting to a tab (worded in reverse). Your editor should easily display tab stops at a value that is ideal for you; you could set this to 2, 3, 4, or any other value if it makes things more readable to you.
