I'd agree with Peter Loron. When developing code I often cut deeply
indented big chunk of code and paste it as minimally indented into
another big block of deeply indented code. This way you clearly see
what you've pasted in. After debugging the code I indent the pasted
code properly. With Python this style of debugging won't work, as I
see.
