Description
Hello, 👋
I have a following code in foo.py:
1 class FooBar:
2
3 def foo(self):
4 pass
5
6
7 # Comment
8
9 def bar(self):
10 pass
and running pycodestyle --ignore=E303 foo.py (E303 - Too many blank lines) reports foo.py:9:5: E301 expected 1 blank line, found 0 even there is a blank line.
There is one more thing that is confusing me - I'm able to fix this error by adding new line between def bar and pass.
Any idea what could be wrong here?
Thanks

Research direction
Reproduce the report with the shown foo.py example and the pycodestyle --ignore=E303 foo.py command. Trace how ignored E303 findings affect the E301 blank-line calculation; done when the existing blank line no longer produces a false E301 while E303 remains ignored.
