Vercel shared a year-long research effort resulting in PEP 827, which proposes standard type-level building blocks for introspecting and constructing types in Python. The goal is to make Python's static typing more expressive and composable, similar to TypeScript's utility types but tailored for Python's runtime model.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://vercel.com/blog/advancing-python-typing:

> PEP 827 proposes a set of standard, type-level building blocks for introspecting existing types and constructing new ones, designed to help both type checkers and runtime tooling.
