You are over-reacting. Keep in mind that sturlamolden has criticized
Python and not you :) I think there is a more convincing reply to
indentation phobia:

It is natural that compiler and programmer agree on how to identify
block structures. Anybody who disagrees should bang his code against
the left side or put everything in one line to get rid of annoying
line breaks. :)
