I want to define an interface for a data class, but leave open the way the data is stored. To this end, I define a protocol A for the interface and an implementation B:

class A(Protocol):
    @property
    def field(self):
        ...

    @field.setter
    def field(self, value):
        ...


class B(A):
    @property
    def field(self):
        return ""

    @field.setter
    def field(self, value):
        pass

mypy has no issues with this implementation, but PyCharm warns me that

Type of 'field' is incompatible with 'A' 

Above approach was already proposed in this answer, but PyCharm doesn’t really like it.

How would I better write this?
