Looking for input from everyone, particularly those with more in-depth Python knowledge.
In Cinder for some time we have been trying to enforce using () or reformatting code to avoid using \ to have statements span multiple lines. I'm not sure when this actually started, but I think it may be one of those things where someone got a review disagreement, so then that person started downvoting on it, then the next person, etc. I've seen some allusions to the use of \ having some issues, but I can't find any concrete examples where this can cause problems. I do seem to remember trying to write a hacking check or a code parsing tool to do something that choked on these, but it's long enough ago that I don't remember the details, and I could very well be mixing that up with something else. So my question is - is there a technical reason for enforcing this rule, or is this just a bad downvote that's gotten out of control? Thanks!
