I think that the real issue is that people expect others to remember
numbers as easily as they do while writing emails, etc. If in email
people refer to PEPs as PEP 302 (Import Hooks) or PEP 3156 (Tulip) or
PEP 435 (Enum) etc, there would be a lot less issue.

We're all guilty of it, and context is often enough to clarify, but
IMO this is more about thinking of your audience when writing.
