For those who may have never used a manual typewriter, the semantic meaning of tab is harder to understand. When you physically set a tab stop on the typewriter, then press the tab key the insertion point jumps to the nearest tab stop to the right.

That said, I use the tab key, but have vim set to do soft tabs. That’s the best compromise IMHO.
