... just as Emacs will decide that pressing TAB at the beginning of the
second line will align both "A" in the first and second line -- see the
example below:

,----
|         A first line
| A second line
`----

I do not see what is wrong with that.

And if you want to concentrate on what you type, why are you pressing
TAB when at the "This is a paragraph" line?   This line starts at the
beginning of the line when written normally.
