# (2) In the .pyi source (type stub)
#     - is declared as Generic
#     - doesn't have a metaclass
# The reason we need this is due to Generic having a different metaclass
# (for python versions <= 3.7) and a class can have only one metaclass.
#
# * Lack of metaclass in .pyi is not a deal breaker, since the metaclass
#   doesn't affect any type information. Also type checkers can check the type
#   parameters.
# * However, not declaring ArgumentParser as Generic in the source affects
#   runtime annotation processing. In particular this means, subclasses should
#   inherit from `ArgumentParser` and not `ArgumentParser[SomeType]`.
#   The corresponding DEFINE_someType method (the public API) can be annotated
#   to return FlagHolder[SomeType].
