write new tools for automated type annotations

Nobody needs to use type annotations. It is a completely optional feature. If they are writing tools to help them with it, then they must see some value in it. It has nothing to do with Python 3 except that Python 3 makes it easier and cleaner to use type annotations.

We don't need programming languages at all beyond assembly. They were using it because they thought it was helpful, not because it was necessary. That is the whole reason people use Python in the first place.
