Raymond Hettinger added the comment:

FWIW, I consider this patch to be a waste of time and don't want to encourage 
more patches like it.   Please focus on substantive changes like improving test 
coverage, adding documentation strings, etc.

Applying this patch would make a microscopic improvement to neatness but it 
also has costs (wasting Nick's time, masking the actual test developer's name 
in the Hg file annotation, and making it more difficult to apply cross-version 
bug fixes).

PEP-8 is a set of guidelines, not a rigid set of rules where "violations" must 
be sought out and eliminated.   That is not the spirit of the PEP.

I recommend closing this as won't fix.
