Aaand you can disable 'electric-indent-mode' to get rid of this behavior.

The general expectation is that our users's projects adhere to some 
common rules WRT indentation, with only a few parameters varying between 
them (which can be customized). When that holds, Emacs's way is way more 
efficient in practice.

And when one works on a rare exception, they can tweak their config 
accordingly. A minor mode could be helpful, I suppose, but the 
customizations I suggested are fairly easy to do already.
