Why is it that Python continues to use a fixed width font and therefore
specifies the maximum line width as a character count?

An essential part of the language is indentation which ought to continue
to mandate that lines start with a multiple of 4 em worth of space (or
some other size or encode with hard tabs, that is not germane to my
question). The content of the line need not be bound by the rules needed
to position its start.
