I agreed, but couldn't come up with a better name. When working on #5467, it became apparent to me that having a \"real\" `AnyPath`, i.e. an alias that is basically `AnyPath[_T] = _T | PathLike[_T]` would be quite useful. I don't think there is a way to have a generic alias yet, but I still propose we should rename `AnyPath` in preparation and to avoid confusion with `AnyStr`. The best I can come up with at the moment is `PathName`. Any better ideas? Other suggestions? Not a good idea?","author":{"url":"https://github.com/srittau","@type":"Person","name":"srittau"},"datePublished":"2021-05-16T13:09:06.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":5},"url":"https://github.com/5470/typeshed/issues/5470"}
