When I upgraded to #Debian 12, my #Emacs started misbehaving in all kinds of weird ways. I assumed it was some breaking change in my custom config script. Turns out I just needed to delete the cache.
Though, to be fair, the reason I have custom scripts is that the way Emacs works out of the box is brain-dead (particularly the way it handles indentation).
@silverwizard I find that stripping the unnecessary whitespace out of code makes it harder to read. While there's a lot more to code readability, forcing people to use it sensibly doesn't hurt anything, IMHO.

I was worried that if I couldn't fix it, I'd have to switch to vi.
Edit: typo

Tabs? Spaces? Why not both?

I guess I understand your stance on this. I just don't share it. I suppose I just have to chock it up to personal preference.
