Personally speaking, I hope annotations are just static hint, and makes zero overhead at runtime. (startup time, memory consumption, and execution speed). Anyway, many users are starting to use typing, for code completion or static checking. And very few user noticed it affects to performance of `isinstance(x, collections.Sequence)`. Python 3.7 may be too slow to help them. Can't we skip abc registration of typing.List[MyClass] completely? I'm sorry if it's silly idea. I don't know about background of current typing.py design. And I don't use abc much too.
