>The second part is basically saying if you do your own logic-based lazy imports (inline imports in functions) then you’re going against the traditions. Again, traditions are allowed to change!
No, they are saying the tradition is there for a reason. Imports at the beginning of the file makes reasoning about the dependencies of a module much easier and faster. I've had to deal with both and I sure as hell know which I'd prefer. Lazy imports by functions is a sometimes necessary evil and it would be very nice if it became unnecessary.
