I'm not setting up a straw man. I'm saying that it makes more sense if computers and humans are looking for the same things. Since humans read the indentation, computers should read the indentation too.

The way things are in bracketed languages, humans and computers read different things, and you just have to hope that they always match up. Sometimes they don't, and the human and computer will have a misunderstanding. To make it a real linguistic redundancy, like in Spanish, the compiler should read both and issue a warning if the indentation is incorrect or misleading. As it is, you and the computer are actually speaking different languages.
