- The experimentation with annotation styles that was recommended
previously in this PEP is no longer encouraged.
- However, experiments within the rules of PEP 484 are now encouraged.
For example, marking up a large library with PEP 484 style type
annotations, reviewing how easy it was to add those annotations, and
observing whether their presence increases code understandabilty.

- Users who don't want to use type checkers are free to ignore them.
However, it is expected that users of library packages may want to
run type checkers over those library packages. For this purpose PEP
484 recommends the use of stub files: .pyi files that are read by
the type checker in preference of the corresponding .py files. Stub
files can be distributed with a library, or separately (with the
library author's permission) through the _typeshed_ repo [5]_.
