If we outlawed them now we'd have to take an annoying one-time hit
removing all the (tons) of existing tabs, generating lots of merge
conflicts on all GHC branches for little immediate gain :-(

So while I share your sentiment, I don't think eliminating tabs would
be worth it in cost/benefit terms.
