Julia uses its type system for: - self-documentation - reduction of boilerplate manual type checking that litters libraries in dynamic languages - all those times you need to express the type of something, which happens especially frequently in numerical code - performance In the future, some "type linting" could be built into the standard library since we can infer types for so much code, but it isn't the top priority.
