Yes, of course it is. That's the entire point.
It's a very needed workaround for most message clients, since most message clients don't support code blocks with horizontal scroll.
But at least text can be copy-pasted by the receiving user into a real text editor of their choice if there's an actual need to preserve tabular/indented/wide text.
That's an extra step that can be extremely difficult to do on mobile. I'm trying to make my messages clear immediately, not make the recipient jump through hoops. That's what good, clear communication is about.
Maybe don't work from a tiny screen if its too small for you to do basic tasks.
