If it's built in to the runtime you get a lot of potential benefits:

- you don't need to install additional packages

- you could have (because you don't want to hurt prod perf by checking all the time) dev-mode with warnings by default on execution and a prod-mode where they're ignored

- you can then have people in the dev environment catching things as they write/run/test their code vs only whenever they run the third party tool (which it seems a lot of people don't set up for even run-on-every-commit)

Let's flip the question around! What do you think are the benefits to making it easy to add misleading incorrect type hints?
