In documentation of typing module there is no mention of new possibilities based on PEP 585. Moreover, should be old constructs like  List, Dict,... marked as deprecated?

I don't think we should deprecate List etc. (PEP 585 specifically punts on the topic) but it's good to start mentioning list[t] etc. in the docs. Do you want to volunteer to write some docs?

Alternatively, we at least need a section of documentation for things like `list[int]` and `dict[str, float]`.
