Why aren't statically typed programs really just dynamically typed programs where all the types happen to be statically inferable?

- willtim 7y agoBecause most statically typed languages allow us to define our own types, add type signatures to constrain etc. Dependently typed languages also allow types to depend on values. Inference is useful, but only one aspect of static typing.
