Correct, it is in mixed prose and code. However, the underlying principle in 
this PEP is: "guidelines provided here are intended to improve the readability 
of code". The author used vertical alignment (for mixed prose and code), 
because of its superior readability. Many others had found that aligning long 
columns of data improves readability, from newsprint and spreadsheets to 
multiple assignment statements.
