    > What's the point of indenting lisp expressions in the minibuffer?

    Indenting Lisp expressions in the minibuffer is useless.

It is not totally useless, but its usefulness is rather rare.
However, since completion is not that common, and since it
is easy enough on M-TAB, I agree we should make no change.
