It&amp;#x27;s frustrating that it was ported forward to more modern languages like Java, JavaScript, C#, etc.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m glad Python (with semantic whitespace) and Go (with gofmt) solve this problem.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>GCC 6: -Wmisleading-indentation vs. “goto fail;”</title><url>http://developerblog.redhat.com/2016/02/26/gcc-6-wmisleading-indentation-vs-goto-fail/</url></story>

Why do you also need braces for the parser to understand the structure when the parser can use the same information that your eyes use? You therefore avoid the possibility of the two signals contradicting each other.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>GCC 6: -Wmisleading-indentation vs. “goto fail;”</title><url>http://developerblog.redhat.com/2016/02/26/gcc-6-wmisleading-indentation-vs-goto-fail/</url></story>
