PEP8 is not a standard that must be adhered to under all cicumstances, 
it is only a style guide, hence:-

<quote>
A style guide is about consistency. Consistency with this style guide is 
important. Consistency within a project is more important. Consistency 
within one module or function is the most important.

However, know when to be inconsistent -- sometimes style guide 
recommendations just aren't applicable. When in doubt, use your best 
judgment. Look at other examples and decide what looks best. And don't 
hesitate to ask!
