The Vim docs for shiftwidth() indicate that when 'sw' is not set, 'ts' will be returned. This is indeed the behavior I observe, but I'm wondering why 'sts' (when applicable) wouldn't be a more logical choice...
Hitting <Tab> at the beginning of a line indents by 'sts', whereas hitting CTRL-T in insert mode indents by 'ts'. I think most users would expect those two actions to produce the same effect. If indent commands such as CTRL-T and >> are going to default to something in the absence of 'sw', wouldn't 'sts' be the value that would produce the most useful/least surprising behavior?
