I found this new feature to be really interesting. While I love Python’s dynamic nature, I can also see the value in knowing what type a variable should be after working with C++ for the past couple of years. Of course, due to Python’s excellent introspection support, figuring out an object’s type is trivial. But this new feature could make static checkers better and also make your code more obvious, especially when you have to go back and update a piece of software you haven’t worked with in a few months or years.
