Either the file you are editing is broken (in which case your own style
guide would not help you either. Obviously, whoever created and
maintained it did not heed it) or tabs will work perfectly if used as
intended.
No one is stopping you from using a width of 8. The thing we object
to is that you are forcing _everyone else_ to use _your_ style. Sorry
to say so, but this makes you part of the problem the rest of us is
facing.

I am not saying you must change your ways and I sincerely hope
you did not take the above personally. I just do not
understand you or your reasoning.
