    Stops are indentation.

    They’re what you indent… to.

    Tab goes to the next stop, the same way newline goes to the next line. Exactly the same way. If you write more text before the next line, the amount of whitespace shrinks. That doesn’t mean the “length” of a newline changes. It always goes one line.

    A tab always goes one stop.
