I don't have a problem with discouraging it, but it should not be
flagged in pep8 (OK in pep8 --wink-wink-nudge-nudge-say-no-more-eh,
though!)

I usually do use the style you prefer, especially when the arguments
want to be commented, but in many cases the arguments are semantically
tuples.  Eg,

    rect1 = paint_rectangle(point[1], point[0],        # top, left
                            textheight + 2 * padding, textwidth + 2 * padding,
                            chartreuse)
