This change seems to be accidentally smuggled in, in the guise of a PEP 512 update :) My view is I prefer always using curly brackets in my own code. It is easier to add printf() debugging without making mistakes. I support “strongly preferring” them in the style guide, which is as much as a style guide can do anyway. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
