I'm talking about practical limitations, not academic ones. You're not incorrect (and libraries like FastAPI and Pydantic make me confident that the benefits of type-safety will grow throughout the ecosystem) but I am talking about from the perspective of someone considering whether or not to adopt typing within their Python project today.
What harm do you think typing a function, for example, would do? I'm genuinely qurious because I just can't see where the issue is.
