exports is annotated as dict[str, str | tuple[str, str]] (plus the iterable case). Because dict is invariant, passing a simple dict[str, str] actually produces a mypy error! Users can work around this by manually annotating the data as dict[str, str | tuple[str, str]], but this is very unergonomic.

collections.Mappinginstead.
