Python forces you to properly indent your code because the language is designed in a way that means the computer can't do it for you.

Once I'd become accustomed to languages where automatic formatting is feasible, having to do any of this sort of thing by hand started to feel like a real imposition. I didn't object to this aspect of Python when I first learned it, because it didn't feel much different from writing my C code, but now, after years of clang-format (and Visual Studio's auto format, and gofmt on the occasions I've been forced to use Google Go...) I just can't be bothered. How dare it make me press return. How dare it make me press tab. I have better things to do with my life than what I can only describe as this. fucking. shit.

You have to press return instead of a semicolon, which is the same amount of keystrokes, and tab instead of a curly brace, which is fewer keystrokes. What problem do you have with that?

Also, Python has a great auto-formatter, Black.
