Probably we should. The benefits are far greater than keeping
compatibility with such an old python version.
So let me make a motion to discontinue support for py34:

Type hints are available since Python 3.0. The typing module is an
enhancement to provide more precise typing, suche as List[str] and
Optional types, allowing None as well.
Understood. Thanks.
I think without the typing module the type hints are much less useful. How do we move forward with type hints and still
support Python 3.4?
IMHO we should deprecate Python 3.4.
