Anybody else running into this? Pylance thinks this code is unreachable but it is. Seems like it’s due to the type-hinting. It thinks that because we declare a variable with type hint of “int”, it must only be an int.

def test_func():
  a: int = "hello"
  if not isinstance(a, int):
    raise ValueError("Not an integer")

def test_func2():
  a = "hello"
  if not isinstance(a, int):
    raise ValueError("Not an integer")

In test_func(), variable a has type hint int, whereas in test_func2(), it does not.
(See screenshot that shows the “grayed out” raise line).

Feels like this only recently happened… vscode Version: 1.91.0, MacOS Ventura 13.2.
