I guess not. I figured you meant "indenting as you type" or something. Not
"strip all indicators of block structure, followed by trying to replace
them." The editors one uses for python all indent when you start a block
automatically and keep that indent until you type the dedent character.

Only if the software you're using strips them out on purpose.
What you're saying is "Python using whitespace is stupid because a lot of
web sites don't treat whitespace as significant." Sure, OK, that's an opinion.
