As a retired software engineer with over three decades experience, I can attest to the fact that type-related errors are relatively uncommon. In fact, a study by Robert Smallshire showed that type-related errors represent about 2 percent of all software bugs. That's pretty insignificant.

I've used C/C++, Java, C#, Go and I've used Python and Smalltalk. The typing discipline has never mattered to me. The benefits of static typing are overly exaggerated.
