I agree with that. The interesting aspect of dynamic languages is that it's a living program, you can interact with, it can interact with itself and you could even effectively make it an entire new program without ever closing it like the Ship of Theseus. Smalltalk, Lisp Machines and the Erlang Virtual Machine were pushing this idea. Which is why I feel that a dynamic language that doesn't focus on the interactivity, like having a great REPL based development cycle, hot swapping capabilities and strong code as data utilities kinda misses the point in the trade-off between static and dynamic, sacrificing safety for too little. Jupyter notebooks seem to have recently brought a little of the first to the mainstream at least.
