I think it should be cls and flake8 etc. should be fixed.

Dear Python developers,
PEP 8 says: "Always use self for the first argument to instance methods. Always use cls for the first argument to class methods.” But what about metaclasses? PEP 3115 seems to suggest
cls, and so do many Python books, however tools such as flake8 don’t seem to like it. Is there a consensus opinion, and should PEP 8 be updated? Kind regards, Pim Schellart
