You must be perpetually perplexed then, because Haskell, Clean, F#, Nimrod and many other languages also use whiitespace to signify indentation.

I suppose I haven't found the whitespace in Haskell and F# so bothersome because the static type systems catch most of the mistakes at compile time that would occur in Python. Haskell also allows optional braces instead of whitespace (whitespace is just syntactic sugar for braces), which can be quite useful at times, especially when copying code.
