Yes, for now it is pretty much just in SAI. I wanted to know if this is a thing from now on or where we are at with that ...
I am afraid that if we don't make this "right" then we will end up with a codebase with inconsistent usage of that and it will be even worse to navigate in it in the long term. I would either ban its usage or allow it only in strictly enumerated situations. However, that is just hard to check upon reviews with 100% accuracy and I don't think there is some "checker" to check allowed usages for us. That being said and to be on the safe side of things I would just ban it completely. Sometimes I am just reading the code from GitHub and it might be also tricky to review PRs. Not absolutely every PR is reviewed in IDE, some reviews are given without automatically checking it in IDE too and it would just make life harder for reviewers if they had to figure out what the types are etc ...
