The second one is slightly easier to read because it's syntax-highlighted. Was
that on purpose?
No, it's an unintended side effect. The (automated) syntax highlighting was
added to the FAQ much, much later than that entry was written. The syntax
highlighting tool does not recognize the first example as Python, so it does not
apply Python syntax highlighting to it.
