[issue45665] Problems caused by isinstance(list[int], type) returning True

[Guido van Rossum]

Guido van Rossum <guido at python.org> added the comment:

See https://github.com/python/mypy/issues/9773#issuecomment-1000975000. I may have talked myself into agreeing with Serhiy there! It does seem inconsistent that Any is not considered a type but list[int] is:

>>> isinstance(list[int], type)
True
>>> import typing
>>> isinstance(typing.Any, type)
