Wouldn't it have worked if you had used `black` on your code? I.e. it is not necessary to apply it to the whole codebase, but maybe only mention it in the codestyle guide then? - leading to an incremental adoption, rather than applying it altogether. I like black, but one of its bigger issues is not keeping already formatted/split lists (https://github.com/python/black/issues/796).
