There is an (old) similar proposal https://github.com/python/typing/issues/402 btw. Taking into account that this can be made only in 3.9, what is the benefit over ``from __future__ import annotations`` (that one can use already) do you see? IMO there are only rare cases of type aliases and base classes, so I don't see much benefit. Also making it generic will require importing ``typing`` from ``os`` which may make it slower to import (``typing`` is a really heavy module, in particular because it imports many other modules). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37920> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
