I put off developing in Python for ages because I dislike significant whitespace. Eventually I was persuaded to give it a go. After developing in Python for some time now, I still dislike significant whitespace and the whole tab-space issue, but can learn to live with it.

I will likely give Nim a go, despite its significant whitespace and weird variable naming rules. In any case I continue to follow Nim and wish the project every success.

This tab-space is a non issue for actual python programmers, because anyone who has done programming in Python for any decent amount of time (say > 5 hours) would stick to using spaces. and learn how to configure their editor to make it a non issue.

Pretty much how, parens are not a concern for actual lisp programmers.
