I think most of the code I share follows pep8, with the exception of list comprehensions doing side effects (I'm an offender on that one).
I feel that it's more important to offer a friendly atmosphere, so people are more likely to come back the next time they need help (instead of jumping ship to something like Rust, which has an absolutely incredible community). To that end, I don't personally view pep8 comments as incredibly constructive, unless their code has gotten large enough where it's actively difficult to understand. ...or every variable is a single letter, in complex calculations that are completely without description (that really grinds my gears lol)
