Generic Type Operations - Fixed generic type operations with Comparable protocol in DTO classes
SQLAlchemy Compatibility - Resolved SQLAlchemy column type compatibility issues with mapped_column
Error Class Initialization - Fixed type assignment issues in error classes for better type safety

Type Annotations - Resolved type annotation and inheritance issues in configuration classes
