At 300+ developers, the project would grind to a complete halt in

Suffice to say, that on that specific project we had weeks without any working build, that had to be saved with hard code free rules until it got green again. This type of projects is what made me change my mind about static vs dynamic. Static languages with automatic type inference, and some type of dynamic dispatch like D's variant type/opDispatch, fullfil most use cases a dynamic language is good for, without sacrificing tooling or large scale development. -- Paulo
