On the flake8 test selection, this PR does not focus on "style violations" (the majority of flake8 error codes that psf/black can autocorrect). Instead these tests are focus on runtime safety and correctness:
E9 tests are about Python syntax errors usually raised because flake8 can not build an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST). Often these issues are a sign of unused code or code that has not been ported to Python 3. These would be compile-time errors in a compiled language but in a dynamic language like Python they result in the script halting/crashing on the user.
F63 tests are usually about the confusion between identity and equality in Python. Use ==/!= to compare str, bytes, and int literals is the classic case. These are areas where a == b is True but a is b is False (or vice versa). Python >= 3.8 will raise SyntaxWarnings on these instances.
F7 tests logic errors and syntax errors in type hints
F82 tests are almost always undefined names which are usually a sign of a typo, missing imports, or code that has not been ported to Python 3. These also would be compile-time errors in a compiled language but in Python a NameError is raised which will halt/crash the script on the user.
