I want to clarify my position a bit: Personally, in _decimal/* I've always used braces and I prefer that. But from reading the Python sources in general, I got the impression that the default style at least for one-liner if-statements is to omit braces. So, in memoryview.c, I adapted to that style. I think enforcing braces won't do anything for security. DJB (who had a single exploit found in qmail in 20 years) even uses nested for-loops without braces. IMO secure code can only be achieved by auditing it quietly in a terminal, not being distracted by peripheral things like version control and web interfaces (green merge buttons!) and trying to do formal proofs (if time allows for it). So I would not want to enforce a style if it makes some people unhappy.
