Usually the core has keywords, built-ins, etc. that have not been
pushed to the release versions for various editors. I know I like
having my syntax highlighting work for what I am coding against, and
against trunk that can be different than what my editor came with.
Plus coding guidelines might be different from PEPs 7 and 8 compared
to what an editor is set to do by default.
