> From my perspective, the main problem with using type annotations is that there's nothing checking them in CI.

Even if unchecked, type annotations can serve as builtin documentation, as docstrings (even when docstrings are not checked ;-)).

Well, I don't have a strong opinion on type annotations in the Python stdlib. But here we are talking about a tool which is not installed, so I don't think that it matters much. It's not really part of the "stdlib".
