While modern tooling is helpful when coding, doing review or even just casual reading of the code with heavy use of auto is awkward especially for parts one has not worked recently. The tooling just not there at all. Sometimes the only choice is to apply the patch and check the code in IDE.
Haskell and even Rust is less problematic in that area as Haskell does not have all those & const specifiers with complex rules of type deduction. And with Rust it is easy to see if a typeless let introduces a reference or copy or move.
