Currently, typing a fixed-length tuple of the same type in Python requires repeating the type multiple times:

from typing import Tuple
Tuple[int, int, int, int]
This becomes verbose for lengths like 8 or 10.

Proposal

Support syntax:

tuple[int, 8]

Should this be Added to Python?

yes

This proposal potentially blocks dropping exlicit Literal type. There will be no difference in syntax tuple[int, 8] and tuple[int, Literal[8]]
