Whatever the reason behind, the basic standard is 8 characters. 4-character
width seems like a pre-HD pre-widescreen hack to make better use of screen real

I would also point out the rant at the end of the linked comment. New projects
should not be using tabs, and spacing indent widths can usually be
automatically detected. Olde projects that use tabs and are not gonna change
will be used to it by now.
Tabs being 8 is not "ASCII" compatible, its
Closed #3790 as completed.
