It is SO STUPID that spaces are widely preferred for indentation in code.

For the past, I don’t know, two hours I’ve been trying to fix YAML formatting issues that could have been fixed without any human intervention if only tabs were used. (It’s a big file, hence the duration.) (I know YAML doesn’t support tabs. That’s kind of my point.)

I even reluctantly asked Gemini (forced upon me by work; I was hoping it would change my mind in this case) why anyone would prefer spaces. It said the same irrelevant thing most people say: because some tools don’t support tabs properly.

Know what that sounds like to me? A problem with the fucking tool.

I don’t know if this is the right place to post this, but I can’t think of a better option.

    Some people are just so incredibly “AKQCSHUALLY” about certain things. And they don’t even see that there’s no right or wrong, it’s just your use case vs mine. Narrow-minded af.
