I'm not so sure that's true about PEP 8.  Several organizations that  
I know of link their own "Python Coding Standards" directly to that  
PEP, and expect their devs to read it and adhere to it, possibly with  
a few local exceptions.  It might even be worthwhile to give PEP 8  
more exposure in the tutorial or on the documentation ToC page.
