Is there a bug open on this request (using tabs instead of spaces). Please
share when you can :-)

use tabs for indentation instead of spaces to be

I was going to say the same thing. Why wasn't that caught in code review?
If these files continue to use spaces, I'd expect people will write
patches
to en.json and qqq.json using tabs and then
l10n-bot will change them to
spaces.
I would prefer that the JSON files use tabs instead of spaces even if it
requires some post-processing as our coding conventions specify tabs for
all code other than Python. I brought this up a couple weeks ago, but was
just told that I should teach my IDE to use spaces for JSON files. Rather
than having 100 developers waste time messing with their IDEs, many of
which I imagine don't have such a preference, it seems like it would be
more efficient to implement a post-processing script and keep the MediaWiki
codebase consistent regarding indentation.
