spacemacs - How to auto indent?

Say I'm in foo.py and I want to paste something into the docstr of function f:

something:

foo
bar

def f():
    """
    
    """

My current workflow (evil normal mode, in python buffer):

1. Move cursor below first """
2. Hit TAB to move the cursor 4 characters to the right
3. Hit p

Now two question arise:

1. Only the first line is indented. For me this is fundamentally wrong and I'm forced to manually indent. Yet in regards of such an operation's daily impact, there must be a reason, but what?
2. Shouldn't my second step TAB be automated?

Result:

def f():
    """
    foo
bar 
    """

Or should I rethink my workflow and look at CI/CD tools e.g. black,yapf formatters etc.?
