There seems to be a few bike shed arguments in your email. Tabbed vs spaced formatting? What's next? One True Brace? I will say that it is laudable that you where sufficiently worked up by your student's plight to write that, although an inquisitive (as opposed to arrogant) tone might have netted better results. Good luck in any case.

I'm trying to make them aware that some are struggling and that explanation is more important than slapping code up on an overhead. Spaced formatting is fine, forcing it on your students is unconscionable and inexcusable. It wastes gobs of time in editing that should've been spent thinking about flow control.
