What trouble have you gotten into due to this?
Just copy some code over into a not properly configured vim.
People seem to forget that not everything is a fully configured development environment working locally on your laptop which attempts to fix the issues introduced by that design decision.
I use (Neo)Vim and never had a problem with indentation. When pasting code, I can easily indent it to any level I want with the
>operator.Which actually breaks the code if you don't have sw configured to the same width as used by the code.
If anything that proves my point.
