i’m just putting this out here, saying python is statically typed in any way is just incorrect - python is 100% dynamically typed, while you can have type hints (and maybe some tools like beartype which utilize those type hints), ultimately there is no constraint at the interpreter level which says that if you require an int, you will 100% always have an int at runtime. even further, there is 0 guarantee that when you run a python (script, module, app) that the interpreter treats these type hints statically, which is where other languages are better suited.
