^^^^^^^^^
The word "structure", as a noun and a verb, has a variety of meanings
that are useful in a programming context.
However, its use as a verb synonymous (according to Jason's example) with
"indent" is not among those. Indentation is commonly used as a technique to
make structure visible, but it is not structure in a programming sense and
should never be mistaken for it.
