Comment (by mamunur105):

 The `get_post_type()` function in `wp-includes/post.php` is widely used
 throughout WordPress to retrieve the post type of a given post. However,
 it currently offers no hook to modify the returned value programmatically.

 ### Use Case:

 In some advanced scenarios, developers may want to **virtually override
 the post type** for specific logic without changing the actual value
 stored in the database. For example:



 {{{
 if ( 'product' === get_post_type( $post_id ) ) {
     // Treat differently
 }
 }}}
