I can't get over the load-bearing whitespace.
This is the best way I’ve ever heard this described lol. You get used to it so fast, it’s really simple. Just indent your code like you’re supposed to 🤷🏻♂️
At least untill someone sneaks a tab in your spaced code, and you don't know how to make your code editor show the difference, or it doesn't support showing the difference.
That sound like a you problem really, detecting this is quite simple because any editor worth their salt will literally lint you an issue saying that tabs and spaces are mixed and the thing literally won't be interpreted. If your editor can't show white spaces, chances are you are one google question away from discovering that it actually can do that easily.
The more I code the less I mind the tool and the more I hate the ones using it wrong.
