I had my concerns when I saw Python Black promoted in other quite some time ago, and the same concern strikes me now I revisited it.
I strongly oppose Python Black adoption for this reason:

88 char line lengths is a table stakes deal breaker for me (and I suspect others), and since the black project relies on no exceptions or discussions about details, this makes it a non-starter.
Sorry but for me is not a good argument. This default behaviour can be change easily. I also prefer 79 character per line, pep8 change, but I still to continue to prefer 79 character per line. However I can use black for my project, because I can change this behaviour.
