Tabs setup to insert 4 spaces.
Anything but tabs is mentally retarded.

The Zen of Python says you should only use 4 spaces, never tabs or other number of spaces.

Tabs, absolutely
A tab has semantic meaning. If you don't like the default width of a tab, you can change it in any editor beyond notepad.exe
