From <a href="https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#programming-recommendations">PEP8</a>: Always use a def statement instead of an assignment statement that binds a lambda expression directly to an identifier. Yes: <pre class='brush: python'>def f(x): return 2*x </pre> No: <pre class='brush: python'>f = lambda x: 2*x </pre> The first form means that the name of the resulting function object is specifically 'f' instead of the generic '<lambda>'. This is more useful for tracebacks and string representations in general. The use of the assignment statement eliminates the sole benefit a lambda expression can offer over an explicit def statement (i.e. that it can be embedded inside a larger expression)

I know PEP8 well enough. But you'll see a lot of lambda functions here, especially when the function is simple enough to be in a line.
