The most basic rule in Python typing is that if you put a type X in an annotation, only instances of that type are accepted. Exceptions to that rule are counterintuitive and lead to confusing edge cases. If you want either bytes or bytearray, you should write "bytes | bytearray"; if you want just bytes, you should write "bytes".
