FORTRAN isn't a beauty either.
And Python is strange as hell with its mandatory tabs.

You can use spaces in Python.

Two, three or four spaces? If you answer wrong I'll never forgive you

Whatever your place defines as a standard. I’ve seen ugly code in C, JavaScript, Java, etc., that uses them all over the place because they’re not mandatory.

If you don’t have consistent indenting, your code looks like copy/paste from several sources; but if you do have consistent indenting, then the indenting of Python is a non-issue.
