It looked, on average, the same. But the indents were often a mix 
between " ", "  ", "|  ", etc.

Also, multi-field outputs often looked like:
|  Heading
|  |_ Field1
|  |_ Field2
|_ |_ Field3

Or
|  Heading
|   Field1
|   Field2
|_  Field3

Or (this is what I'm using for everything now):
|  Heading
|  |  Field1
|  |  Field2
|_ |_ Field3

The primary improvement is consistency -- instead of every script 
defining its own style, the library does.
