I have never accidentally hit tab when I was meaning to hit the space key.
I constantly have problems with positional issues with spaces because every one uses a different number of spaces and its too easy to miss click three spaces in a block of 8 instead of 4 spaces.
I don't understand how every one else has issues hitting the tab key but no problem clicking on space 6 out of 10 spaces.

I use spaces all the time and didn't even know this issue is a thing. Especially when using monospaced fonts and text editors which just treat tabs and spaces almost the same from the user's viewpoint. I mainly prefer spaces because the cursor movement is more consistent and predictable, especially when I align things in code which otherwise leads to a mix of tabs and spaces.
Yeah I'm confused here. I think the "clicking" in previous posts refers to using the mouse to position the cursor within a group of spaces/tabs. I don't use a mouse in my text editor so it took me a while to grasp.
