I'm still quite strongly in support of black. I find it's very nice to read a codebase that has strong consistency (which is historically usually the work of pedantic but very necessary reviews).
It's even nicer to go between multiple codebases which are all consistent with each other. PEP8 and linters like flake8 go quite a long way in achieving this but black goes even further. There will always be arguments about what standards to use, it's an unsolvable problem. Some people may think the current Django standards are perfect, some will prefer blacks defaults, even more will have their own preferences. I feel that it is arbitrary to make this a major point, it will never be agreed upon. Consistency in the end is the most important thing (even PEP8 agrees there). If we can contribute towards a global consistency in the python community that would be wonderful. If black is the way the community is going for this, then that is where my vote is. Even moreso if it lowers the barrier to entry (I don't think anyone is saying it raises it?).
