Description

Is your feature or enhancement request related to a problem or limitation? Please describe

Python 3.9 will reach end-of-life in late 2025. Type hints should use modern syntax to align with Python 3.10+ standards

Describe your enhancement idea

Update type hints required only by Python 3.9 or below such as Union and Dict.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Provide any additional context

We still need to keep those type annotations now as we still support Python 3.9.
