That's true as long as the results are predictable and reproducible. I don't happen to know if Black is, and it's not apparent from the documentation.

Update: Found it:

> How stable is Black’s style?

> Starting in 2022, the formatting output will be stable for the releases made in the same year

The same version of black, with the same settings, will always produce the same results from the same input code. Definitely re-producible. That question is about how stable the formatting is from version to version. Which is now more stable, and why Django finally made the move.
