Figure out if they prefer spaces or tabs, insist on the other.

Please note this won't work on Pythonistas as they've already had their spirit thoroughly broken.

I feel like this is a debate that doesn't exist - 4 spaces bound to tab is the only actual answer.

Hard tabs are much better as someone who works with an age diverse team where vision issues are a serious issue. Four space tabs are optimal for you but there are other lived experiences.
