Re: As someone pointed out to me a while ago
This is indeed the answer and why tabs should be used, or part of the reason. Visual impairment can also mean having to use huge fonts - space indent means the far too much horizontal scrolling, vs a smaller tab indent size.
Amusingly devs seem to be the most vocal when it comes to display overrides, like dark mode, font size/choice etc, yet when it comes to formatting code for viewing their way is best. Use tabs for accessibility or spaces if you’re the only one ever to look at your code.
