This is an argument against:
- the line length limit (because the IDE should just soft break lines in a 
super nice way)
- explicit “self.” (swift does this with syntax highlighting for example)
- CamelCase for classes/types (actually python does a bad job here anyway with 
int, str, datetime, etc)

I’m not saying I disagree but we should be aware that this is the argument.

(and as ChrisA rightly points out it’s not fully applicable to constants anyway)
