Good to know. Nothing at all was explained in the commit message justifying that particular sentence, leaving one unfamiliar with the background to wonder what she was referring to. I definitely agree the words "standard English" are pretty meaningless to would-be python developers anyway and the new phrase in the PEP 8 is much better. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
