    It really depends on the use case. Scripting? 80 should suffice. Writing a complete program with classes, methods in classes, calling methods of variables, chaining method calls… 80 is very punishing. Even 130 is punishing for some pyspark methods. To apply line limits , you end up dividing calls in separate lines, which in turn makes the whole file much, much larger. Doing to it for the times it happens in 130 lines is completely fine, but with 80 a 800 lines file would be converted to 2000 at minimum. That’s not good.
