The problem is that the logical structure one has in one's head is not always
the same as the physical structure one has to implement in. I prefer the
indentation of my program to reflect the former instead of the latter. That
is impossible in python.

This problem sometimes shows up when possible new programming structures are
discussed and the structure is discareded, not because it lacks merrit but
because it can't me made to fit into the forced indentation mold of python.
