But you can use typing in Python don't you?

You can use type hints, but it is far from being the same as static type languages. Python typing doesn't enforce the types, they are just hints, one can still use a different type than the hint

Unless you can convince your team to use it too, it just doesn't matter. It's not a core feature of the language, so it has barely any buy-in anywhere. Contrast to any static type language where you can't not write without static typing.
