First if had I intended insinuation it would have been more subitle
than that.  Second your experience relates to how much weight we're
going to assign to your _opinion_.  Indentation isn't a problem for me
or for most of other people around here, whose opinions and experience
I and the other folks here hold in much higher regard.

Your opinion or prejudice doesn't make it a flaw.  Having designed a
widely used language would add weight to your opinion.  BTW - If you
want to wave Nick Wirth at us, I think he tends toward baby talk in
his designs.
