-* Introduce Y090, which warns if you have an annotation such as `tuple[int]` or
-  `Tuple[int]`. These mean "a tuple of length 1, in which the sole element is
-  of type `int`". This is sometimes what you want, but more usually you'll want
-  `tuple[int, ...]`, which means "a tuple of arbitrary (possibly 0) length, in
-  which all elements are of type `int`".

 | Y090 | `tuple[int]` means "a tuple of length 1, in which the sole element is of type `int`". Consider using `tuple[int, ...]` instead, which means "a tuple of arbitrary (possibly 0) length, in which all elements are of type `int`".
+| Y091 | `Callable[<parameter_list>, None]` or `Callable[<parameter_list>, Any]` is generally a mistake in the context of a parameter annotation for a function or method. The returned value from a callback is generally ignored at runtime, so `Callable[<parameter_list>, object]` is usually a better annotation in this kind of situation.
