It gives me warm fuzzies in the belly knowing that as long as I've placed the semicolon it doesn't matter if I indented correctly or used the new line correctly.
I'm even one those weirdos that put the first squiggly bracket right after the statement(
if ( ... ) { . . . }
That comes with other tradeoffs, the main one being that Lua is forced to maintain a pretty restrictive grammar to remain unambiguous. There are only very limited expression statements, for example. But anyway, it exists and it addresses the points you specifically made in your comment.
if
{
// ...
}
else
{
// ...
}

(Obviously a joke. I've never written a program in one line, but I do respect the art of 5he craft.)
For me, this is probably the main reason why I cannot abide space-sensitive languages such as Python.
I completely understand you, I mean why would you ever want to use a _space_ when a perfectly functional and normal Tab already exists.
(This is a joke ... ait' I'mma Tab out~)
