I'd put it in the lawful category. 4 space indentation and other strict formatting requirements chaffs me to no end, just like a hard-ass teacher requiring name and student number in some specific and strict format at the top of a page.

Hard for me to categorize any loosely typed language as lawful personally. You are right though, semantic whitespace is definitely more lawful (and imo definitely fucking evil)
