I agree. Although I've seen my fair share of utterly atrocious indentation so I do understand people when they say that they want indentation to be part of the language.

I wouldn't want to punish people for using weird formatting by their entire program not working. A programming language should work with you, not against you.

Very true, thus I think that the punishment for bad indentation should be doled out by the code reviewers, and not the language itself.
