Since it's relevant: my recollection us that the current use of angle brackets in inspect.Signature is just the default use of them for "there is no canonical representation of this, but leaving them out would be misleading" (I haven't checked if the PEP says that explicitly).
I previously forgot Larry, Guido & I discussed the appropriate use of square brackets and the slash in the definition format at PyCon, so I now think having the Argument Clinic PEP also cover their appropriate use in the inspect.Signature string output is a good idea. Cheers, Nick.
