  if user_set_delete: logger.info("User set flag to delete file") delete_file() vs if($user_set_delete===True){ log("User set flag to delete file"); delete_file(); } "Correct" and "looks good" can have very different consequences. Acting like proper indentation for looks is on the same level as proper indentation for execution is ignoring the real dangers of improperly indented python. I know copying that php block will not change the execution, no matter how it is formatted vs copying python where I need to guarantee I've got it right. Hence "some overhead".

    Actually if user_set.delete: logger.info("User set flag to delete file") delete_file() Becomes: if ($user_set_delete==True){ log("user set flag to delete file") } delete_file();

      That was the point, I think.

      The point being that when the indentation gets screwed up via the copy/pasting, the if changes the meaning of the code vs just changing the aesthetics.
