The question is, do you really expect to be burned by unexpected 
narrowing/widening in indentation code. That problem, in isolation, 
seems easily solvable.

I'm softly opposed to the color chosen for this bike shed. And since the 
plans for the power plant are non-existing, maybe we should avoid 
ordering the bikes just yet.

Or to put it in a different way, the lack of an API (which encourages 
people use some unseemly approach) is not the same as an API that relies 
on it. Because we won't have to support it for ever and ever.
