Annotations and the annotation syntax are fundamental to the design. But that's core Python syntax. But I wouldn't describe types as being that significant to the design, it's more "if you supply them we'll make use of them". Naive question from a lurker: does it mean that it works also if one annotates with something that is not a type, e.g. a comment,

@dataclass class C:     a: "This represents the amplitude" = 0.0     b: "This is an offset" = 0.0
