Why don't people indent C++ access specifiers/case statements?

Question

I often see stuff like this:

class SomeClass {
public:
    void someMethod();
private:
    int someMember;
};

This seems totally unnatural

Answer 1

The access specifiers are really just labels (as in those used by goto). People generally don't indent labels, or outdent them one level wrt the surrounding code. So I would say this is not inconsistent at all.

EDIT:

The Standard also uses this style for access specifiers. Example from Chapter 10, paragraph 2:

class Base {
public:
  int a, b, c;
};
