Soft tabs are superior. press tab-> get 4 spaces.

In come my idiotic colleagues:

"buT w3 lIke 2 SpACe5!"

fuck with the linter

I use a product that has a homegrown scripting language that enforces two space tabs and will crash with anything else.

My main issue is that they keep changing format all the time and making merge requests unnecessarily difficult. Wanna use two? I hate it but fine. But let's agree on this and change our formatter all at once.
