You can either call `get_input_peer` to save a few `isinstance` checks which would otherwise be executed when constructing a `Request`, or leave the requests do its work. Note that types requiring an `InputPeer` as a parameter will **not** call this method, so you do have to call it on those cases. +The first one `utils` are only utilities, which are not related per se to the Telegram API.
