I myself have never implemented deprecation warnings management nor lazy
loading,
so it is hard to say if __class__ assignment is fast enough. For me it is
more combination
of three factors:

* modest performance improvement
* some people might find __getattr__ clearer than __class__ assignment
* this would be consistent with how stubs work

How about this

def allow_forward_references(*allowed):
    caller_globals = sys._getframe().__globals__
    def typing_getattr(name):
        if name in allowed:
            return name
        raise AttributeError(...)
    caller_globals.__getattr__ = typing_getattr

from typing_extensions import allow_forward_references
allow_forward_references('Vertex', 'Edge')

T = TypeVar('T', bound=Edge)

class Vertex(List[Edge]):
    def copy(self: T) -> T:
        ...

class Edge:
    ends: Tuple[Vertex, Vertex]
    ...

Look mum, no quotes! :-)
