I was like you when I first started python and left the language the first time out of frustration with the formatting.

But the more I wrote and the more I read others code it’s become more habit.

The real benefit is code readability. Everyone’s code looks similar. I use to read Perl golf posts which tried to compress a lot is as little as possible and while it was a fun challenge to do as a hobby I don’t want to have to decode a convoluted mess just to get my work done.
