Running ``grep -B1 else Objects/*c`` shows that we've happily lived

ISTM, our committers have had good instincts about when braces add
clarity and when they add clutter.
If Nick pushes through an always-use-braces mandate, A LOT of code

I'm sure we can agree that 1) Nick isn't "pushing through" anything,
this is a discussion about what to do, and 2) even if we agree to change
PEP 7, no one would advocate having to go through all the C code to
change it to a newly-agreed style.
