IMO, indentation is not information, but redundancy to increase legibility. So I think abusing indentation for anything else but to indent information is plain wrong - which makes the use in Markdown and Pug ok, because here it is used exactly for that.

Also, if you want to force a coding style on developers, use a formatter instead of throwing errors.
