Vedran Čačić added the comment:
Only one detail to resolve: you say "format is quite capable of handing a
variable width field".
It does, but not in a really nice way. Honestly, would you really rather see
"{:^{}}".format(title, width)
than
title.center(width)
? Nested formats are ugly, I think that's a consensus. :-) Not to mention that
.center is more explicit about what's going on - that "^" is almost lost in
that brace-forest.
