> I'd prefer to have non-performance critical code for Python written in Python

A type checker is performance critical code. You can watch how Pylint, just a linter, written in Python, lints your source code line by line. It's so slow it can take 30 seconds to update the linting after you change some lines.

Or entire projects abandoning checking because mypy is so damned slow for anything non-trivial

Many of these make the mistake of running against an entire codebase instead of checking vcs first and only running against changed files.

You still need to type-check files that weren't changed if they were affected by a file that was.
