Ah, I didn't see the distinction between "indent" and "align."

Anyway, it seems like this system necessitates that the leading white space on a given line must be a mixture of both tab characters (\t) and spaces, unless one sets their editor to insert space characters as tabs (which is standard), and is obviously living in a state of sin.

On every line that is right-aligned, yes. Most lines would have only tabs.
