Re:Black: An uncompromising Python code formatter

Your complaint is the entire reason it's an interesting project: it gives you practically no choice. That's why it's called black, as a reference to the Henry Ford quote: "Any customer can have a car painted any color that he wants so long as it is black."
The idea is to toss aside control over nitpicky formatting _configuration_ options in favor of not worrying about formatting configuration and just going with someone else's opinion of what the configuration should be instead.
