Most of it is caught as incidentals of tests you have to write either way. There's room for both paradigms - it's kinda silly to argue strict superiority of either because there's just no empirical evidence that having static typing or not drastically changes bug count. If you take a look at some of the studies out there that do exist (which there are, admittedly, few, and it's a fundamentally tough thing to measure), e.g. [0], it usually tends to be the case the both typed and untyped languages show up in the realm of "least likely to produce bugs" [0] http://web.cs.ucdavis.edu/~filkov/papers/lang_github.pdf http://web.cs.ucdavis.edu/~filkov/papers/lang_github.pdf
