I was looking at python#4542, an old issue that I think we've mostly addressed, but nonetheless has an alarming number of likes. It occurs to me that front and centre we mention an issue that most people never run into in practice. I also pulled the details of this. mypy's hardcoded list of stdlib modules is incomplete, but here are the ones on the list that we do not have stubs for (I only checked Python 3): ``` {'__dummy_stdlib1', '__dummy_stdlib2', 'ossaudiodev', 'sqlite3.dump', 'turtledemo', 'xml.dom.expatbuilder', 'xml.dom.minicompat', 'xml.dom.xmlbuilder', 'xml.sax._exceptions', 'xml.sax.expatreader', 'xxlimited'} ``` We should maybe consider getting rid of the hardcoded list altogether.

It seems highly unlikely now that users would run into missing standard library stubs.

I removed the documentation for this erorr already in python#9675 This list of modules here that we don't have stubs for is now down to: ``` sqlite3.dump turtledemo xml.sax._exceptions xml.sax.expatreader ```
