We can replace one heuristic with another, yes.
That exchanges misindentationss for other misindentations.

Indeed (and I think we've been getting there bit by bit.  Not sure how
far we stand from that nowadays).  Of course, that won't help with

    (let ((defvar
           3))
      (+ defvar 5))

and other oddball cases ;-)
