This sounds fun if you have 10x programmers or at least IQ > 140 programmers in charge. Last place I worked, I was told never use "smart" tricks if you can do the same thing in a simpler way. For-else and f-strings and := sound like harmless enough (though the last one is controversial); "with" is useful for resources that need to be deallocated but "yield"? Really? "more readable" when you slap a decorator on the thing? Why are we packing the enter and exit operations into a single function?
Playing with the typesystem and generics like this makes me worry I'm about to have a panic attack.
Give me code that I can understand and debug easily, even when I didn't write it; don't do implicit magical control flow changes unless you have a very good excuse, and then document both the how and the why - and you'll get a product that launches earlier and has fewer bugs.
Sometimes, a few more if statements here and there make code that is easier to understand, even if there's a clever hack that could cut a line or two here and there.
