That's an example of how perceptions differ. In my list, everyone(*)
uses them - MyPy, MicroPython, etc. Even more should use them (any JIT
module, which are many), but sit in the bushes, waiting for a kick, like
PEP484 provides.


(*) Everyone of those who needs them. Otherwise, let's throw out
metaclasses - noone uses them.
