  I don't know about you, but to me it's easier to spot an opening bracket
at the same column as the closing one I'm looking the pair for, than
distinguishing that some word is at the same column (specially when
there are several blocks one inside another).

  Have you actually looked at the documentation? For example look at the
primitives documentation (6.5). About half of the examples are indented
in one way and the other half in the other way.

  Even if "the vast majority" of people use that indentation style, that
doesn't automatically make it good.
