I think you are mistaking me for someone else. I have been using python
since before 2000. I went from not liking the forced indentation to not
being bothered with it to not liking it again.

I also think that one doesn't need to discard a language just because one
doesn't like this particular feature. One can think the other characteristics
of the language are positive enough one can live with this small annoyance.
