| prefect is self type, altair is self type (singleton), artigraph is runtime typing i'm fine with, pytest is abstract generic class with only concrete subclasses, pandera is also fine, steam is self type, homeassistant is self type |

    def func(cls) -> Self:
        reveal_type(cls._inst)  # Any | None
