This seems like a weird, and possibly untrustworthy, hack. Does Python not have the equivalent of Ruby's `x` modifier?

  Yep, python has the same option, it's called re.VERBOSE and aliased as re.X. https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html#re.X https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html#re.X

  What is untrustworthy about it?
