I'm not sure why this is relevant.

Which is why I asked you to name a desirable code construction that
Python denies you due to it's indentation rules. If, for example, you
find the following style compelling:
if condition:
clause1
else:
clause2
Then Python is, indeed, restricting you. So could you provide an actual
example where Python is keeping you from using a style that you find
desirable?
Cheers,
Brian
