+The ``__args__`` of the parameterized generics for :data:`typing.Callable`
+and :class:`collections.abc.Callable` are now consistent. The ``__args__``
+for :class:`collections.abc.Callable` are now flattened while
+:data:`typing.Callable`'s have not changed. To allow this change,
+:class:`types.GenericAlias` can now be subclassed and
+``collections.abc.Callable``'s ``__class_getitem__`` will now return a
+subclass of ``types.GenericAlias``. Tests for typing were also updated to
+not subclass things like ``Callable[..., T]`` as that is not a valid base
+class. Finally, both types no longer validate their ``argtypes``, in
+``Callable[[argtypes], resulttype]`` to prepare for :pep:`612`. Patch by
