It moves the problem from "could you submit your PR with spaces not tabs, the spurious diff is not good" and "but it doesn't matter, I don't care" on a regular basis; to "let's install this plugin to your IDE and neither of us has to worry about it again - you get ease and I get consistency". If this is really a hard problem for a team then it's down to the people not the tools. There is in my experience no "bother to use them" part, it happens automatically when a file is saved. Even better, "the right plugins" might be none at all. Some IDEs come with editorconfig support out of the box:
