Bug Report

Apologies for the lengthy issue title, but I'm not really sure what to call this. Here is the problematic behavior: Suppose I have two related Generic Callables, Callable[[T1], T2] and Callable[[T2], T3]. These callables are packaged together in a dataclass that is parameterized on T1, T2, and T3. For instance:

T1 = TypeVar("T1")
T2 = TypeVar("T2")
T3 = TypeVar("T3")

@dataclass
class FunctionRelation(Generic[T1, T2, T3]):
    func1: Callable[[T1], T2]
    func2: Callable[[T2], T3]

I believe it should be an error to construct an instance of the dataclass such that the return-type of the first callable is not the argument type of the second callable. As far as I can tell, this does work correctly in a simple case.

def func_str_int(x: str) -> int:
    return int(x)

def func_int_str(x: int) -> str:
    return str(x)

def func_str_str(x: str) -> str:
    return x

FunctionRelation(func1=func_str_int, func2=func_int_str)  # OK
FunctionRelation(func1=func_str_int, func2=func_str_str)  # Expected error - Cannot infer T2

However, Mypy incorrectly accepts the bad relation if the dataclass is simply initialized in a function call:

relations: list[FunctionRelation[Any, Any, Any]] = []

def append_to_list(relation: FunctionRelation[T1, T2, T3]) -> None:
    relations.append(relation)

append_to_list(FunctionRelation(func1=func_str_int, func2=func_int_str))  # OK
append_to_list(FunctionRelation(func1=func_str_int, func2=func_str_str))  # Incorrectly accepted by Mypy!
relation = FunctionRelation(func1=func_str_int, func2=func_str_str)  # Expected error
append_to_list(relation)

FWIW, although Mypy accepts the above example, append_to_list(FunctionRelation(func1=func_str_int, func2=func_str_str)) it is (correctly) identified as an error by Pyright, though Pyright does warn against invalid TypeVar use in the function signature. If the signature is changed from FunctionRelation[T1, T2, T3] to FunctionRelation[Any, Any, Any], then neither Mypy nor Pyright complain, which I believe to be incorrect behavior from both type checkers.

It is very possible my understanding of the expected behavior of Mypy is incorrect here, but there does seem to be an inconsistency in how the types are being treated when a function signature can change the type validity of an object passed to that function, even before the function is called. If this is expected, I would sincerely appreciate help understanding why.

Expected Behavior
If I construct a dataclass D with the following spec

@dataclass
class D(Generic[T1, T2, T3]):
    func1: Callable[[T1], T2]
    func2: Callable[[T2], T3]

and I have a function F that accepts a D (regardless of how D is parameterized), then I expect that
IF a statement which constructs a D fails type checking,
THEN a statement that constructs a D and passes it to F should ALSO fail type checking.

Actual Behavior
It is possible to construct a D that fails type checking, but to pass type checking by constructing that same D at the same time as passing it to F.

Direzione di ricerca

Inizia riproducendo l’esempio generico minimo di dataclass e Callable con strict=true, confrontando la costruzione diretta con la costruzione passata a append_to_list. Traccia l’inferenza del tipo generico per il costruttore di dataclass e l’argomento della funzione, quindi aggiungi una copertura di regressione che dimostri che entrambe le forme rifiutano la relazione Callable incompatibile.
