Probably we should. The benefits are far greater than keeping

Understood. Thanks.
I think without the typing module the type hints are much less useful.

The typing module was added in Python 3.5, but as
of today SATOSA still
supports Python 3.4.
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. How do we move forward with type hints and still
support Python 3.4?
IMHO we should deprecate Python 3.4.
