If you're up for the extra analysis on the module, wouldn't it be just as possible to front-load this analysis instead of doing it after the fact, and perform the imports in the `if TYPE_CHECKING` block prior to accessing the annotation data? Or perform a fake version of the imports that just sets every name imported in `if TYPE_CHECKING` to `Any`?
