After working on #11696 I was interested in knowing how many more unused code we have.

I am not suggesting that we should remove everything I found, all items must be carefully reviewed. Because they might be used by other people. But, I am sure we can totally remove some of the code I found.

Was it used in some important place? Or is it popular in plugin code? 🤔

Personally speaking, this func helped me understand the effects of fallback and related code structure in mypy when I was a new contributor

@97littleleaf11 we can try to solve this via docs. Probably I can copy paste this function into some docstring. Thanks a lot for the idea! 👍

The list of type variables may be empty.
Several types has fallbacks to `Instance`. Why?

This is great. Looks like some of the useful looking functions in there dated back to the old semantic analyser.
