I really like this PEP in general. I think this brings the type system 
for type-hints closer to Python semantics.

But there are a few points I disagree with.
I don't think Protocol types should be tied to ABCs. It just makes 
things more complex with no obvious benefit.
I also think all references to 'isinstance' and 'issubclass' should be 
removed. Type-hints should not have runtime semantics, beyond those that 
they have as classes. In fact, there is no need for protocol types to be 
classes at all.

Cheers,
Mark.
