The war is mostly over because regardless of it you use tabs or spaces, the many modern languages use a code formatter and reformat to whatever is common. Languages that go with tabs are also now routinely mixing it with spaces for visual alignment and assume a certain tab width for total visual width enforcement.

On the other hand editors often now handle spaces as if they are tabs, even for cursor movement. So well. Both won?

I remember a time when people religiously claimed that both tabs need to be the way to indent but also that they have to be 8 spaces visually. I guess at least that war was lost since now even CSS allows you to change the number of visual spaces a hard tab has.
