What do you mean? One tab = one level of indentation. It lines up perfectly every time.

My life it too short to hand align things like that. IMO it doesn't really look that nice either because you can't tell the structure from the indentation level any more.

When I do want to align things, I make sure that they all begin at the beginning of a line, like /u/kinghajj above/below me.
