Purposefully reducing the clarity of an example to satisfy some tool is not an option. We might be able to work around this specific case, but there will be others. It should be fairly easy to execute the example code, just to make sure it runs. We can always work out a scheme to test its validity later. One route is to use the same docstring scraper we use for the reference guide, to extract all tests. We can then choose a markup which identifies tests with unpredictable results, and refrain from executing them. In some instances, we can even infer which tests to ignore, e.g. the '>>> plt.' example Pauli mentioned.
