+#  W503: line break before binary operator
+#  W504: line break after binary operator
+#  E203: whitespace before ':' (which is contrary to pep8?)
+#  E731: do not assign a lambda expression, use a def
+#  E501: Line too long (black enforces this for us)

+# flake8-bugbear runs extra checks. Its error codes are described at

+#  B019: Use of functools.lru_cache or functools.cache on methods can lead to memory leaks
+#  B023: Functions defined inside a loop must not use variables redefined in the loop
+#  B024: Abstract base class with no abstract method.
