Matz hates (inline) type annotations and said many times that they're not coming to Ruby. IIUC he only allowed RBS (type annotations in separate files) due to community pressure.

A lot of Rubyists deeply care about code aesthetics and Sorbet annotations are unfortunately quite ugly. There are also RBS comments, which look a bit better, but tooling/LSPs are not quite there yet IME.
