(Gasps in horror.) I can only hope I've misunderstood this sentence. Has it ever been even tentatively suggested that type hinting become mandatory?

Some of us don't use type hinting or annotations (I don't even pretend to understand what they are) and don't intend to. No offence to those who like them, carry on doing your thing. Please reassure me, someone. 😁
Rest assured :D -Barry
