Type hinting in Python is so ugly that I stripped it all out after a few days of using it on some personal projects. They more than double the length of function signatures and create comment clutter (is this a real comment or some MyPy flag?).

I wish there was a way to fully separate the hints into separate files. Such files could act like header files in C. Or, some comment character other than # to start type hint (how about "!"?), so IDEs can hide them if the user wants.
