With your question about laying out code, are you aware that PEP 8
specifically allows both?

"""
While sometimes it's okay to put an if/for/while with a small body on
the same line, never do this for multi-clause statements. Also avoid
folding such long lines!

You have a very simple condition (actually, trivially simple - in its
exact form as given, it's always true) guarding a simple statement.
There's nothing wrong with putting that on a single line. I especially
consider this important when there are multiple parallel conditions:

if foo.x: foo.widen()
if foo.y: foo.heighten()
if foo.z: foo.deepen()

There's no point breaking these into two lines each; they show a
perfect parallel as it is, and splitting the lines would disrupt that.
