Documentation
With e.g. implicit_reexport=True
and strict=True
the effective value of implicit_reexport
is True
. It is right behaviour, I think, but it should be documented in https://mypy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config_file.html#confval-strict and https://mypy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/command_line.html#cmdoption-mypy-strict.
I.e. it should be clearly stated that if both strict
and some strict-included flags are set, then strict
does not take precedence.
Also, the phrase "enables all optional error checking flags" is very confusing. strict
does not enable all optional flags, but a defined subset of them. Look at #7767 (comment) by @hauntsaninja :
mostly the set of checks needed to ensure that you do not have any type unsoundness without an explicit circumvention of the type system, like type ignore, explicit use of Any or cast
Maybe the phrase "enables all optional error checking flags" should be changed to aforementioned definition, or to something like "enables optional flags recommended by python devs", or just deleted.
