I've heard people say that typeless is just as good, because you load
them up with unit tests that verify the types. To me, this doesn't seem
like any advantage. I'd rather have the language automatically check
things for me, rather than worrying about having complete unit test
coverage, let alone the bother of writing them.
That why I tell those people to just not think of static typing as
static typing, but as "compile-time unit tests"... ;)
