When boxed is True, expr.py asserts that we must have
arguments. Ultimately, this should mean that if boxed is True that
arg_type should be defined. Mypy cannot infer this, and does not support
'stateful' type inference, e.g.:
```
if x:
assert y is not None
...
if x:
y.etc()
```
does not work, because mypy does not statefully remember the conditional
assertion in the second block. Help mypy out by creating a new local
that it can track more easily.
