Yes, you missed the possibility of someone else editing your code.
All of the silliness about tabs vs. spaces only comes up at all when
more than one person uses the same source file.

Also, I _never_ hit the space bar four times to insert a level of
indentation.  I hit the tab key, once.  My editor does an excellent
job of inserting the appropriate number of spaces.
