Actually both of these issues point to the real problem with this PEP.

I knew about them (note that the colon is also missing) alas I
couldn't fix them.
My editor would could not remove a space or add a colon anymore, it
would immediately change the rest of the characters to something
crazy.

(Of course now someone might feel compelled to state that this is an
editor problem but I digress, the reality is that features need to
adapt to reality, moreso had I used a different editor I'd be still
unable to write these characters).
