Ahh, see, that's a lot more specific: Why is the tab width 8 on golang.org?

Ah, that width-of-a-numeral bit brings enlightenment.

Even to my humanist eyes, a numeral one that looks like a serifed capital eye looks wrong.
Is there a way of getting gofmt to use elastic tab stops when formatting?
So can you define what is an elastic tab stop?
But gofmt already use elastic tab stops for comments after variables declarations (in groups):
http://play.golang.org/p/eRShCFYc6v (click "Format")
I can't understand what the reasoning was for an 8 space indent. I realise that this doesn't affect the functioning of any code, but it does affect whether the code fits on a screen and hence the code readability. Even "A tour of Go" uses 4 space indents instead of 8.So what is the advantage of 8 space indents that isn't adequately addressed by 4 space indents?
