We are working towards type annotations. I would recommend reading over the proposal[1] that we have largely agreed to. But regardless, this isn't something that will happen overnight, it will likely take years. And we don't have any intention of just blanket applying it to the whole code base up front. It'll be slow, and only added as necessary. In some cases, it may require rewriting code, which in some cases could also require deprecation cycles.
