New submission from Brandon Rhodes: I am delighted to see that PEP-8 has pivoted to breaking long formulae before, rather than after, each binary operator! But I would like to pivot the PEP away from citing my own PyCon Canada talk as the authority on the matter, and toward citing Knuth himself. It would also be an enhancement for the PEP to show both options and make an argument for the practice, instead of simply asserting that one is better than the other. I therefore propose the attached patch.
