    What’s so hard to understand about it? It’s how you should format your code anyway. Only it’s enforced.

      It’s quite often I have to second guess whether the code is correctly intended or not. Is this line supposed to be part of this if block or should I remove that extra indentation? It’s not always entirely obvious. Extra troublesome during refactors.

      In other languages it’s always obvious when a line is incorrectly indented.
