What seems positive to me is that there's a good mix. It speaks to the eminent pragmatism of the way Python decided to handle typing and type hints. I've found that there is no one best typing discipline. Different approaches work better for different problem domains. And I'm currently using Python in so many different problem domains that I find it convenient that Python now allows me to choose the best typing discipline for the job. It's true that this means that Python isn't the best at any particular way of doing typing. But that also seems appropriate. Being a jack of all trades and master of none is sort of Python's thing nowadays.
