In case you're wondering about what those
typing.TypeAliasType
things are; they're what you get when you use the new Python 3.12+ PEP 695type _ = ...
syntax.They're a bit different from
typing.TypeAlias
because they actually wrap the alias, which is accessible through its__value__
attribute. I don't expect this to compat issues though, since there's usually no reason to dissect these aliases at runtime.Static type-checkers don't treat them any differently.
