    In this kind of debate, to people refer to tabs as actually entering the tab character, or to the use of tabs involving immediate replacement with a specified number of spaces?

    For instance vscode allows the usage of the tab butting to enter 2 or 4 spaces when pressed, would that be considered tab or spaces?

        That said, I do think a lot of newbies think it’s “Tabs”, which fuels a not-insignificant portion of this debate.

          Definitely is a misconception. The video posted by another commentor (Silicon Valley clip) implies spaces is manually pressing space 4-8 times. Which we should all be able to agree is madness :)
