Let me express a counter opinion (and that's all they are, opinions)

PEP 8 presents Guidelines, it is not the ultimate arbiter of what code
should and should not look like. "Fully covering PEP8" has no real
meaning. In fact, read the PEP itself for comments on that.

Decide what things you think matter to your project(s), see if you can
configure (for example) Pylint to report that way, distribute that
consfiguration (that is, check it in as part of the codebase), and then
use that as a tool to evaluate code. If you can, there's no particular
need to require multiple static code checkers.  Static code checking is
only a small part of the puzzle of code quality anyway, best not to get
completely hung up on it.
