Yeah, this seems neatest if you don't like line breaks
pipeline = (
task(get_data, branch=True)
| task(step1, workers=20)
| task(step2, workers=20)
| task(step3, workers=20, multiprocess=True)
Square brackets would create a list and braces would create a set of course. The contents still can be split over different lines-- just pointing that this syntax doesn't do the same thing.
Yeah I should have noted that they behave the same in terms of cleaning up a line, not necessarily in terms of what the compiler will do with each token pair.
