configparser.SectionProxy.get(...) doesn't recognise bool as a valid type for argument 2

[Newbytee]

If one tries to use configparser.SectionProxy.get(str, bool) (as in, get a key by str and use a bool as fallback value), mypy will complain that Argument 2 to "get" of "SectionProxy" has incompatible type "bool"; expected "str | None" . However, in practice this works just fine and you can give SectionProxy a bool as second argument in this context.
