Pylint directives are applied wrong

[david-venhoff]

Describe the Bug

Looks like we have been applying the pylint # pylint: disable=… directives wrong :see_no_evil:

It is usually wrong to place a pylint directive directly on top of a function, because this directive will then apply to its enclosing block, and not just the function. The correct way to suppress pylint lints for a function is to make the directive the first line of the function.
