Column-Aligned Field Comments

When a dataclass, enum, or similar structured type has inline comments on its fields, align all comments to the same column and wrap the block with # fmt: off / # fmt: on so the formatter preserves the alignment.

Rules

1. The comment column starts two spaces after the longest value expression in the group.
2. Every inline comment is a complete sentence ending with a period.
3. Fields without comments leave the comment column empty (no filler).
4. # fmt: off goes on the line immediately before the decorator or class statement.
5. # fmt: on goes on the line immediately after the last field.

Example

# fmt: off
