Eh, you can insert newlines wherever you want and it'll still work, plus the "80 char line" rule is at the top of the list of PEP8 rules you can break.

True, but then it's not on one line anymore, and the code likely ends up on more lines. If only there was some other version of the code that took up less lines and characters... :)
