If your code takes up so much horizontal space with 4-space tabs, you're putting too much on one line or indenting too deep. 4-space tabs keeps your line length manageable.
If you have to nest more than 2 layers, rewrite your code.
Or you're using four spaces per tab, just throwing that out there. =p
