   @Kami I'm not sure this is currently possible in mypy since we only know the type of the returned driver value at runtime based on the provider argument.
   
   The current approach looks good to me and may even encourage more users to stick to the methods defined in the base API (a win in my mind since it'll make code more easily cross-cloud portable). We do lose mypy coverage for any `ex_` methods, but if a user has code that relies on those, they can always work around it like this:
   
   ```py
   driver: MySpecificDriver = get_driver(...)
   ```
