This attitude is part of the problem: not following PEP8 does not make code "substandard". PEP8 was never meant to be an authoritative metric of 'good'. Its a set of guidelines that are subject to change over time (this isn't even KINDA the first change!) and represent the core devs taste and particular needs, and it goes out of its way to say that it is only a suggestion and other concerns (especially local consistency) override its advice. --- Stephen Hansen m e @ i x o k a i . i o
