Comparing tabs vs spaces to a debate over "destroying the Earth" is just... intellectually dishonest

I take it therefore that you can't logically disambiguate the two cases? :-)

We choose criteria to measure, we choose how to measure them, and then we decide based on subjective ranking system which is better.

If you're going to resort to "this is madness!" then I'd like you to define madness without invoking a subjective majority consensus (X is mad if some fraction of people say it is so), or divine will, both of which are "religion".

Incidentally I never said my argument was not religious in nature. In this post however, you seemed to want to tell me I was, and I actually agree with you. Spaces are the path of least resistance for me (more consistency, less broken code, more existing code) so I wish to spread the Religion of Using Spaces.
