Don't get me wrong; I _almost_ always indent in a manner compatible with
Python. I just don't like the idea of being forced into it. Sometimes
I might just want to do something like:

    if (true) { one-statement; }

...if the situation calls for it. Of course, Perl kinda shines here because
it supports that situation more directly by being capable of saying:

    one-statement if true;

...without the need for the extra punctuation. But that's a topic for another
list, I guess.
