A space wide tab and a space is essentially the same; the space at this
position doesn't help you at all, while the tab specifies the column, ie. if
you change the "virtual" to a "static", the type column will still be correctly
indented, while you would need to replace the space with a tab in the other
case. Not that this is a typical use case, anyway, just as an explanation why a
tab is actually cleaner IMO.
BTW please don't top post.
