Since we’re changing the defaults for several options in 2.0, I’ve decided to request that we do so for useTabs as well.

Tabs have several advantages over spaces:

• Always 1 byte per indentation level, regardless of tabstop width.
• Indent size is customisable (those of us who prefer 4 characters can use a tabstop width of 4, and those who prefer 2 characters can use a tabstop width of 2)
