Unfortunately we can't improve that area of the code, because that
"params.py" file is automatically generated using the generateDS.py
tool, and those are the errors it generates.

In version 4 of the SDK (which will work only with version 4 of the
engine) we will use a different approach to generate the code, which
will enable us to do improvements in this area.

Are you still having trouble? Can you share the code that is causing the
error?
