I always see loads of Static vs Dynamic and Functional vs OO opinions breaking out in the comments. While the discussion is often interesting and insightful, it would be nice to see some empirical analysis of the trade-offs here. Stuff like development time, error rates, maintainability (no idea how you'd measure this one...). Anyone know if such studies exist? Feels like they should be out there given the amount of discussion the topics generate
