Are you going to make the same changes for the other entrypoints? In the following for example,

    def fit(
        self,
        model: AnomalyModule,
        train_dataloaders: TRAIN_DATALOADERS | AnomalibDataModule | None = None,
        val_dataloaders: EVAL_DATALOADERS | None = None,
        datamodule: AnomalibDataModule | None = None,
        ckpt_path: str | None = None,
    ) -> None:

it would be more consistent if train_dataloaders is only allowed to be a (list of) dataloader(s)

Ah good point! I'll update those as well
