We had `from __future__ import division` for many years in Python 2, and nobody argued that it implied that Python 2 doesn't have division -- it just meant to import the future *version* of division. So I think the original idea, `from __future__ import annotations` is fine. I don't expect there will be *other* things related to annotations that we'll be importing from the future. -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido)
