I constantly need to be reminded to shorten docstrings and comments (and
sometimes remove "We" from the beginning of such strings). Unfortunately
(though understandably), Black won't help with any of these issues, and
we'll still be left with the same back and forth about grammar, wrapping,
etc. in comments and docstrings. (Again, as of mid-2018 there is
the max-doc-length option for flake8 that could help with this somewhat,
but that change can be made independently.)

I'm not arguing against Black adoption, but I don't think it's going to
eliminate from the review process what may sometimes feel like inertia...
