Gotta love dynamic languages that let you have obviously broken code. (Fix in PR #3738)

I guess we should add a type checker like mypy to CI.

[Kwpolska]

I agree mypy would be a great addition, but very few places in Nikola have types, and we probably have a bunch of hacks that were considered Pythonic back in the day, but don’t really work in a fully-typed environment; or who-cares-about-structure things like tuples or dicts instead of classes. mypy currently produces a ton of warnings even without --strict. I opened #3739 for future work on type annotations.

This will fix also this error?
