Plotly updating graphs

Reading Creating and updating figures in Python.

  1. All of these are equivalent (code from link):
fig.update_layout(title_text="update_layout() Syntax Example",
                  title_font_size=30)

fig.update_layout(title_text="update_layout() Syntax Example",
                  title_font=dict(size=30))


fig.update_layout(title=dict(text="update_layout() Syntax Example"),
                             font=dict(size=30))

fig.update_layout({"title": {"text": "update_layout() Syntax Example",
                             "font": {"size": 30}}})

fig.update_layout(title=go.layout.Title(text="update_layout() Syntax Example",
                                        font=go.layout.title.Font(size=30)))
  1. Introducing linebreaks: <br> and <br /> work, <br/> doesn’t. 1
  1. Margins in graph: Setting graph size in Python
fig.update_layout(margin=dict(l=20, r=20, t=20, b=20))

And I just want to mention the very special design decision to have arguments named tickfont and title_font (with underscore), in the same function, getting identical arguments.
