> tabs reduce storage, bandwidth, and I/O, three items that are important over weak links like 3G and on embedded devices with limited capacity and speed like my mobile phone.

Between minifying your css and js, and gzip compression, I doubt that tabs save you a significant amount of bandwidth when you're on your phone.

And how often are you working on code where using tabs instead of spaces seriously impacts your storage and I/O?
