I've actually thought about this a lot (for some reason).

Spaces are fixed. Tabs are adjustable via most user interfaces.

So, in theory, you'd think tabs are superior because everyone can have their own amount of spacing and that's that.

Therefore tabs > spaces

(I should probably leave now)

Until you want to align code on non-tab boundaries.
