90% of the time, it ends up looking something like this: class Foo(metaclass=abc.ABCMeta): @abc.abstractmethod def f1(self): raise NotImplementedError @staticmethod @abc.abstractmethod def f2(arg1): raise NotImplementedError
I think we're getting sidetracked by the `raise NotImplementedError` -- why do you have that line in there? If I understand the ABCs correctly a class that does *not* have concrete methods to replace the abstract methods will raise an exception at class creation time, so why do you need the `raise NotImplementedError`? It would only ever happen on a super() type of call.
Having said all that, I would hope that any abstract class I had to implement would have good doc strings, and the multi-line format is much easier to read.
