Python: Comment on type hints for the functional example

I replaced misleading Haskell-language type comments by Python typing checked with MyPy. Python can add typing in comments as part of the language and that too is not the Haskell that was replaced.

Comments are for the reader not the compiler. My comments provide the reader with information which is both less noisy, and more specific, than the uses of the Callable and Any keywords in the compiler hints.

I quite understand that our approaches differ, and the contrast adds to the value of Rosetta code, as defined on the landing page

Deleting informative comments is gratuitous, and inconsistent with the goals of Rosetta code, and removes value without adding any. There is a name for this. Hout (talk) 09:36, 31 March 2021 (UTC)
