And has the sociopathic benefit that the diffs make it quite clear
what changed.  None of this
looking-deep-into-lines-to-see-what-changed.

  x \
  = \
  5
  if \
  y \
- != \
+ == \
  z:
      print \
      'this is terrible'
      print \
      'but still not incorrect

Still terrible.  But not quite as useless as a knee-jerk reaction
might suggest.

I actually hacked together a binary-diff something like this,
emitting every hex-formatted byte of each file on its own line, then
diffing the two results.  I could see doing something similar to diff
Python ASTs.
