Currently Python documentation in most cases uses en-dashes. Should we 
replace them to em-dashes? Should we remove spaces around dashes?

Or we should replace a half-dozen of em-dashes found in Python 
documentation to en-dashes?

I believe all hypens used in place of dash should be replaced to dash 
(but to en- or em- dash?) in any case.
