It isn't "space". Got an example for that warning? I don't use PyCharm,
but the main linter warning I get is an _unused_ variable, eg:
def f():
x = 3
I set x and never use it. Likely brain fade on my part, and worth a
warning.

I haven’t seen that one. What I get is warnings about:
def is_adult( self )->bool:
LEGAL_AGE_US = 21
return LEGAL_AGE
It doesn’t like LEGAL_AGE_US being all caps if declared in a function.
Yes, I suffered this one too.
The rationale comes from PEP-008 (Constants):
Constants are usually defined on a module level and written in all
capital letters with underscores separating words.
Yeah. The above looks like a method. I'd probably have something like:
class C:
LEGAL_AGE_US = 21
def is_adult(self) -> bool:
return self.age >= self.LEGAL_AGE_US
Variables used (self). Constant a class attribute.
