Wouldn't a fork of Black with a different formatting choice miss the whole point of Black?

  The difference is not substantial, just makes it a tad easier to read. Also it depends what you are using it for, 1) to keep your team focused, or 2) enable anyone in the python community to feel comfortable jumping into the project. Given not everyone uses black, #2 is not as common as you'd think.

  Except that it could eventually overtake Black so that Blacker becomes the new norm. I don’t think Black’s dream of all Python looking the same is that worthwhile. Especially if people don’t like some of Black’s decisions. I might use Blacker if it existed, but I’m currently ok with not using Black and just sticking with flake8.
