This issue came up few times before (although I can't find an issue here on b.p.o., maybe it was on typing-sig list). Although in micro-benchmarks the impact may seem big, in vast majority of applications it is rarely more that a percent or so. On the other hand, IIRC the only reason `Generic.__new__()` exists is so that one can't write `Generic()` (i.e. instantiate a plain `Generic`). I would be totally fine if we just remove it in 3.9. Hopefully, people already learned what typing is for and don't need so much "protection" against not very meaningful things. Also, the error can be given by static type checkers, there is probably no need for a runtime error. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39168> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
