I think this is a good read to learn about what tabs and tabstops really are regardless of whether you agree that tabstops should be at different positions per line or with the controversial idea of using proportional fonts (this would work with monospaced fonts too).

That’s pretty cool, although personally I’m not a fan of the things this solves. Comments after statements offer no benefit over simply commenting on a line before or after, except maybe keeping the line count the same. And defining your method like:

func methodName( int x

I prefer to write as:

func methodName(
    int x

Seems like the project could use a VSCode version, too.
