> Having symbols delimiting blocks and indentation violates the DRY principle.

This is a very interesting hot take if I have ever heard one. I don’t want to agree, I don’t like significant whitespace, but I might have to agree.

I think by the same line of reasoning, spaces for indentation rather than tabs violates DRY as well though? I could be wrong.
