My only complaint with black is that it only splits long definitions into per-line if they exceed a limit. That’s probably configurable, now that I write it down.

Other than that, I actually quite like its formatting choices.

Line length is definitely configurable. All it takes is adding the following on pyproject.toml[1]:

  [tool.black]
  line-length = 100
Aside from matrix-like or column aligned data, the only truly awful thing I've encountered has been broken f-string handling[2].
