Please accept PEP 649!
Python's type hinting has become so much more useful than originally thought,
and without this change much of that will be hindered. For example (you already
know about Pydantic and FastAPI)
[discord.py](https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py)'s commands system allows you
to use typehinting to specify how arguments should be converted. Take the
following code:
```py
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='>')
@bot.command()
# discord.py reads the typehints and converts the arguments accordingly
async def reply(ctx, member: discord.Member, *, text: str): # ctx is always
passed
await ctx.send(f'{member.mention}! {text}')
bot.run('token')
```
I must say, this is extremely ergonomic design! Don't break it :)
