python-docformatter seems to qualify as "a program that is strongly coupled to the Python ecosystem".

From ArchWiki Python package guidelines [a]:

Python 3 library modules, use python-modulename. Also use the prefix if the package provides a program that is strongly coupled to the Python ecosystem (e.g. pip or tox). For other applications, use only the program name.

This seems like a pretty bogus reason. There are plenty of python packages which have a bin entry point with a python- name. Is that an official arch policy? This package is mostly used as a library.

Xeonacid [1] filed a request to merge python-docformatter [2] into
docformatter [3]:

The package has a binary at `/usr/bin/docformatter`, it should not
have a `python-` prefix which is for pure library.
