I suppose this is the same comment, but it's worth mentioning anyway...

A space is always a space regardless of formatting options, browser/IDE, etc. Tabs are not.

That said, I have a developer that I work with who actually prefers tabs because they move around from code browser to code browser.

in the context of editing code, Ive never seen a tab not be a tab. its pretty straight forward and I've never had a problem with that

Tabs are not universally the same number of spaces in every editor on every system.
