I believe everybody has it's own preferences definitely. Therefore
"improved" is not well chosen I admit.

I believe that both indenting and commenting serve a purpose in
improving readability, and yes indenting is subject to arbitrary
choices. Still I believe that formalizing the indentation would be
benificial for all.
For my own purpose I use Jedi Code Format. This tool is very stable and
very customizable. It performs indentation / capitalization / cleanup
automatically and each aspect of the process can be controlled.
