Description
Some of the built-in scalar types inherit from the corresponding Python types. However, this fact does not seem to be exposed by the numpy type stubs.
# Python version 3.8.10, numpy version 1.23.0
import numpy as np
x = np.float64(1.0)
print(f"x={x} of type={type(x)} is float: {isinstance(x, float)}")
# x=1.0 of type=<class 'numpy.float64'> is float: True
def f(a: float) -> float:
return a
f(x)

Replacing np.float64 with np.float_ or np.double does not help.
