If you select the whole first line (including the ending end-of-line (EOL)),
eg. by clicking on the selection margin or by extending the selection to the
left of "from", then there is a problem, it should be indented.

If you are only selecting "Substract", eg. by double-clicking on it, it is
the normal "typed text replaces selection" behaviour.

Regards.
