Remind me again why type hints were added to Python?
Oh, right, to make the code clearer because dynamic typing is too complex to follow. 🤔 😉

When I first heard the word:
- I immediately knew it was not corporate marketing jargon.
- I immediately knew it was something negative.
- I immediately knew it was something intense enough that I should probably be paying attention to it.
- I did NOT immediately know what it referred to, and as such wanted to understand it.
Seems like a pretty effective choice to me. 🤷
