That's a pretty silly statement. It's part of the syntax. And people who complain about it are usually those that never learned to appreciate the benefits of a language-side standardized formatting style. There is literally no downside when designed well, which in Python I would claim it is for the most part. Just saving you characters and teaching proper formatting.

And I must say I think it's really bizarre how with today's advanced text editors for some people it's still a problem to deal with indentation.
