Not sure where you got that impression:
https://pep8.org/#a-foolish-consistency-is-the-hobgoblin-of-little-minds

Pep8 clearly states consistency is less important then readability (it's the 
first thing mentioned and mentioned repeatedly that you can use as an argument 
to break consistency). And this is the primary advantage of black, since 
readability is hard to quantify (and therefore lint or format) and I think 
this is where black has succeeded (by breaking consistency where it is 
needed).
I mostly follow the discussion with interest from the sidelines, but just 
wanted to correct this consistency argument: if you want consistent code, go 
with autopep8, it'll keep your lines consistent below 79 characters and quite 
an unreadable mess.
