I use numeric a lot, and I understand what you mean. Perhaps there is some Python-like scientific language yet to be invented, but on the other hand, perhaps the interface between convenient latent typing and efficient strong typing may be fated to always be a bit uncomfortable.
Meanwhile I have been (rather irresponsibly) obsessed with the idea of a mutable complex. It turned out to be harder than I expected but I learned a lot in the process. Even though I'm still not sure it's a useful idea, I am ready to do it in a rather pretty way, but it will take a couple of hours I'm not sure I have.
