I would say: Optional type checking outsourced to a third party tool (mypy) that catches perhaps 90% of the errors if you are lucky.

You still need something like MyPy to actually validate types. What happened is that there's now a standard for typing annotations - now, PyCharm, MyPy, Wing IDE and anyone else can share the same syntax.
