Why not? Making identation part of the syntax allows more for less?
- ghoward 4y agoBecause indentation-based languages have very limited formatting they can do. They can't do any indentation formatting.
- bobbylarrybobby 4y agoYou cannot cut and paste freely when indentation matter
- throw827474737 4y agoYes ok, but this is not very limiting and doesn't make this approach a ridiculous and failed one to start with, as the OP originally suggested and those languages which do it disprove already?
