I don't think this really works.  A PEP has to present a consistent
view of the world, and works as a cohesive whole.  Arguments against a
PEP don't form a PEP in themselves, they don't need to be consistent
with each other; they merely oppose a particular set of propositions.
So an "anti-PEP" would not be anything like a PEP; it would just be a
list of assorted arguments.

Also, in the case of PEP 622, I haven't seen anyone argue against the
PEP in general.  Rather, against specific design decisions in the PEP.

Regards

Antoine.
