Flake8 with pep8-naming complains about camelCase imports

I tried using the following:

import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET

but flake8 with pep8-naming gives the following warning:

N817 camelcase 'xml.etree.ElementTree' imported as acronym 'ET'

then I tried:

import xml.etree.ElementTree as et
import xml.etree.ElementTree as element_tree

but yet again:

N813 camelcase 'xml.etree.ElementTree' imported as lowercase 'et'

What does flake8 want here?

flake8 pep8 python

Flake8 is ok with the following acronyms:

import xml.etree.ElementTree as Et
import xml.etree.ElementTree as eT

More verbose variants are also possible:

import xml.etree.ElementTree as ETree
import xml.etree.ElementTree as eTree
import xml.etree.ElementTree as ElementTree
