No, that doesn't matter. If both users in the thread above still haven't realized that they're debating tabs vs spaces, they won't no matter what you tell them. Of course, tabs vs spaces debates always, 100% of the time, devolve into angrily shouting at each other, it's unavoidable.

Interesting stance. Let me guess, you have never implemented a user interface?

No? I mean, I've been implementing user interfaces since Visual Basic (+/-) 5.0? What does that have to do with anything? I'm not going to argue with you guys, sorry. I'm talking meta - the way you talk between yourselves makes me want to scream and escape. Whether you're right or not really doesn't matter at all here.

EDIT: And obviously, I know I can just ignore you and move on, which is what I did. Notice that I didn't reply to your or your adversary posts, but to another person. That's mainly because I get nervous around delinquents - which is how you two sound to me...

Great takeaway, glad you stuck with the chat just to add that.
