This needs to be fixed. I am working on it right now.

But, on the other hand. Looks like it is the same for regular classes:

It doesn't look like PEP-591 prohibits
Final
on a subclass, so it looks like it's a logic error that Mypy does not allow subclassing like you did ^^^.There was a problem hiding this comment.

Though this is pretty clear why this is the case (and makes sense)

Ok, let's make this a subject for a next PR. This would require some extra work. And might have unwanted consequences.

Yeah. This is intended. I don't remember why we didn't mention it in the PEP (it may be we indeed just wanted to be terse).

It should still be allowed if the variable is not initialized yet, right? Based on the PEP it looks like it would be expected to be initialized in the
__init__
, but it sounds like there should be a special case where the class is basically completely abstract.There was a problem hiding this comment.

No, it shouldn't. Consider this

That makes sense in general but I wonder if it makes sense to special case enums here. We may need more details from the use case in #11578.

The example given here #11578 (comment) is basically how the code is used. The only thing that the base class does is define a
__new__
that stores the actual values that all the subclasses provide (additional constants like defined in this example https://docs.python.org/3/library/enum.html#planet).The interpreter doesn't complain about subclassing an enum, and as I realize now that's because there are no values defined on the base class. I do agree enums probably need a special case because the class that does define enum values is the concrete class that is also final whereas the example above the interpreter does not effectively define final like it would for enums.
