Unlike spaces, the size of the tab can be changed with one command at the beginning of the document. Therefore, I can globally change all the 1/2" indents to 3/8" or 1/4." The smaller indent at the beginning of a new paragraph not only looks more professional (and is required by some publishers), it will exactly match the indented quotations which cannot be done using the space bar on your keyboard.
