When I write code with whitespace enforced, I feel my brain slowly falling away from me. But with Python being so popular, I wonder if people look at me like I'm a freak on a leash.

As a fan of Lisp/Scheme, I find it's a bit like parens: if one's editor mostly takes care of it (auto de/indenting) then it's not that bad, otherwise it can get annoying quickly. The teams/projects I've been part of the last couple of years make heavy use of Nim, which is whitespace delimited. My editor is Emacs and lsp-mode + nimlsp (latter is the LSP server; lsp-mode also leverages nim-mode) do an okay-ish job, but not a great one to be honest. Some days I really wish for curly braces.

  Any time that is not spent thinking about how to model data and behavior in your domain is a genuine waste ;)
