Seems like it will to me. Here's an example using tabs for indent and spaces for alignment:

I can't follow that link but I'll trust you, I was just going off what the documentation had to say: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#tabs-or-spaces

My reading of "Disallow" must be wrong.

As long as you always “indent” with tabs and only use spaces after, you’re good, I believe. That is, if you want to align something, you just first indent to the level of the previous line with tabs and then you can use spaces for alignment within that indentation level. What you can’t do is, for example, have a space and then a tab.
