What's the logic for adding some braces, but removing others? No braces if everything is a one-liner, otherwise braces everywhere.

Hmm, PEP 7 doesn't show any example of the one-liner exception. Given that it tends to promote errors, particularly among indentation-conditioned Python programmers (adding another statement at the same indentation level), why not just have braces everywhere?
