@theoutsider24 thank you for opening this PR!

Two asks:

• can you please try to fix the tests? I believe we need some type updates to the tests
• would you mind adding an update to the docs with the new use case?

We would love if you could help us with this, but otherwise we would be happy to assist :)

@rubenfonseca Thanks for the comments!

I've fixed that issue with the type-hinting
Regarding the docs - where do you think the most appropriate place would be to mention it? I couldn't see a place that seemed obvious so I just included it in some existing examples that seemed relevant
