Fact? My team is using Atom, VS code, IntelliJ and vim-go for Go. There has never been a problem with tabs vs spaces. On save gofmt converts all spaces to tabs and when I open Go files in vim-go it converts them to spaces according to my settings. Same for all other editors, whether you like tabs or 7-space indent.

Python doesn't care either way as long as indentation is consistent (though there's a common misunderstanding that Python cares). However PEP-8 specifies that code should be indented using 4 spaces and editors should be configured to render tabs as 8 spaces (likely to make mixed tabs & spaces really obvious). But PEP-8 also specifies that code should follow whatever is the coding standard in a given project.

IOW, Python is actually far more pragmatic than most people (including most Python programmers) think. It just has a culture that strongly advocates following the rules (i.e. PEP-8 and PEP-20).

Using Python for 10+ years, never used tabs.
