Ah, I see what you mean, out of instinct I'd have put one more tab on the "whatever" line, which would break the concept. But if you manually do both the indent + alignment in spaces then it works.

Besides your IDE of choice screaming at you that you are mixing tabs and spaces that is :)

It still feels like a hack though, simply going with spaces is more uniform and works everywhere. Especially as a lot of code is viewed in browsers nowadays (GitHub, GitLab, ..) and tabs are often a mess in those environments.

JetBrains IDEs actually have it built in, it's called "smart tabs".
