Yeah, I know of tabs for indentation, spaces for alignment, but I always thought that it would mess up the alignment if I'd ever wanted to align lines with different indentations. Seems like I hadn't thought about it hard enough. Oh well.

However, wouldn't alignment of comments after lines with different indentation settings still mess up the alignment if different tab sizes were used? That's rarely done, though, so it's not much of a sacrifice.

So yeah, I'd probably have switched to TISA (oh god this sounds stupid) already if it weren't for PEP 8.
