Identity is not the same thing as equality in Python. In these instances, we want the latter.
Use ==/!= to compare str, bytes, and int literals.
$ __python__
```python
>>> proj = "pro"
>>> proj += 'j'
>>> proj
'proj'
>>> proj == 'proj'
True
>>> proj is 'proj'
False
>>> 0 == 0.0
True
>>> 0 is 0.0
False
```

__E901,E999,F821,F822,F823__ are the "_showstopper_" [flake8](http://flake8.pycqa.org) issues that can halt the runtime with a SyntaxError, NameError, etc. These 5 are different from most other flake8 issues which are merely "style violations" -- useful for readability but they do not effect runtime safety.
* F821: undefined name `name`
* F822: undefined name `name` in `__all__`
* F823: local variable name referenced before assignment
* E901: SyntaxError or IndentationError
* E999: SyntaxError -- failed to compile a file into an Abstract Syntax Tree
