I get the argument for spaces and all, but as someone who has vision problems 2-space indention makes my life way more difficult. I mean I'm not against adjusting my own workspace to accommodate the rest of them team since I'm the only person who has several vision impairments, but I'm honestly still not convinced the difference justifies the extra work.

The heading of this article is petty opinions, so there is no justification.

Just make your IDE to use space characters when you press tab. Done, everybody wins
