Message 403931 - Python tracker

Hi Michael,

Thanks for taking the time to look into this.

I don't feel strongly enough about following the existing PEP wording to desire creating a situation where instance vars can't be marked Final if we can instead make a workaround with ClassVar[Final[...]]. Plus, I can appreciate the argument that dataclasses are their own thing that should be treated specially in the PEP.

If you know what's involved in formally proposing and enacting a PEP amendment I can get behind that.
