Summary

The type annotation for methods in the Route constructor restricts the input to lists of strings when it can accept any iterable. The methods on the Route itself are stored as a set.

I had the issue when I was trying to build new routes from other preexisting routes:

new_route = Route(
    route.path.replace("/prefix1", "/prefix2"),
    route.endpoint,
    methods=route.methods,  # type error: Argument "methods" to "Route" has incompatible type "set[str] | None"; expected "list[str] | None"
    name=f"new_{route.name}",
)

I changed the annotation to Collection, though the current implementation would work with any Iterable. Collection allows lists, sets, tuples, and Iterable would also allow generators. Let me know what you prefer.
