Read PEP 8 itself before making a decision.

1) It is NOT rules for all Python code, only the standard library.
2) https://peps.python.org/pep-0008/#a-foolish-consistency-is-the-hobgoblin-of-little-minds

It is not necessary to change the PEP; it is necessary to fix tools
that claim more authority than they actually have.
