But that doesn't add up. Why on earth would anyone think they could "reformat" a Python program? All reformatting to python means is that you replace tabs with spaces or change the indent from 8 spaces to 4 or something along those lines. It's hardly python's fault if someone goes in and replaces half of the tabs in a code block with 4 spaces and there rest with 8 or something like bizarre like that.
I am getting really tired of hearing people bitch and moan about python and whitespace. If that's what kills a language for you, I think you've got the entirely wrong attitude about languages.
