Agreed.
All respect to those who like proportional fonts, to each their own, but I think of code as a 2d grid.
Same reason I use syntax highlighting: color is another dimension that helps me see what I’m doing. This is particularly notable in Lisps, where turning on rainbow parens can be like switching on a light switch, immediately helping me understand the shape of the forms.
