Might not even be a convention. I have now tried using
https://github.com/edreamleo/make-stub-files
<https://github.com/edreamleo/make-stub-files> on the code base at work. I had
to fix some fatal bugs, and it's still pretty buggy even after those fixes, AND
PyCharm has some nasty bugs with stub files that are blockers, but it's clear
that generating stub files to do this is feasible.
