I think --flat is probably the best option.  The downside of --flat is
that it doesn't add up the sub-totals, as a regular balance report
does (although some people find that misleading).

beancount has a 'treeify' command which uses arrows for the tree.
I'm not sure if that's more readable for you?  (Running treeify on
ledger output doesn't work, though.)

The output of treeify looks like this:

|-- Expenses
|   |-- Banking
|   |   |-- AccountFee                             -0.10 USD
|   |   |-- CPFee                                  957.21 USD
|   |   |-- ForeignTransactionFee
|   |   |-- PayPalFee                              2266.61 USD
|   |   |-- PaysimpleFee                           239.75 USD
|   |   `-- TransactionFee                         38.23 USD
|   |-- Development                                345.48 USD
