The what's new section about PEP 515 says :
«With PEP 515, though, you can use underscores to separate digits as desired to make numeric literals easier to read: 1_000_000_000_000_000. Underscores can be used with other numeric literals beyond integers, e.g. 0x_FF_FF_FF_FF.»
As far as I know, 0xFFFFFFFF is 2 ** 32 - 1, an integer.
I think the author meant «beyond decimals»

the author meant "integer literals" when he said "integers" which is accurate as the hex literal isn't quite the same (e.g. uses different parse rules, etc.). If you would still like to propose different wording then you can submit a pull request at github.com/python/peps for consideration.
