Except Python is a general purpose programming language so it's hard to have 1 shoe fits all solution when style vary based on medium you're working with. Are you making an OOP GUI app? Django? Something that is using loads of long Xpaths?

I don't know if that applies. Ideally, a good code formatting tool would work with any project. If there is a specific flag you want to disable for some block to use your own format, then the tool should support that.

As a couple of examples, PHP has had a unified formatting standard since 2013 and Elixir has a formatter built into the language. Both languages need the formatter to be enabled by your IDE/CI and that's also the case for Black.
