I agree with removing this check. I suspect it's a holdover from very early typing when static types were supposed to be runtime types. Now the check is a bug magnet and doesn't serve a useful purpose. I think we can just remove the tests that check for ints. I don't see a principled reason to special-case int literals. I wonder if we should apply this change to 3.10 and 3.9. It's arguably a bugfix, but it's a pretty big change. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue46644> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
