The battle is not about the key, the battle is about the characters inserted in the source code.
I use spaces exclusively in source code (except where not possible, e.g. in Makefile), but I use the tab key constantly in indentation. And it does indeed do much more than just insert spaces; indeed, sometimes it even removes spaces.
