MyPy exists, Python officially supports type annotations.
I do think comprehensions are a weird feature for Python, particularly from the “one way to do it” perspective. And also because the language so strongly discourages FP patterns outside of comprehensions.
Overall I would say the language is a lot better than the ecosystem, and that it suffers a lot from having a bad packaging design. I’m not a fan, suffice it to say. It’s best if you can stick to the standard library.
