Right now, the only accepted values are Iterable[float | int | str] and the default is the same, i.e. float | int | str | None = None.
There's no real restriction for this other than it needs to be tracked down where things like the following might happen, if default... (which would also not work for 0 fyi), and replace them with if default is not NotSet where NotSet follows then Sentinal pattern (it's just NotSet = object() and you check if it was not set by doing if default is NotSet)
For example, one thing that would need to change is the following:

EDIT: apparently I already did some of this a while back but didn't complete it nor test it...
