No, it is additional burden. If it was possible to do it without annotations, you bet we would do it!
- Rusky 6y agoIt's only a burden to the extent that type annotations are a burden. It's definitely possible (including in Rust) to do away with both, but that has downsides of its own.
- jfkebwjsbx 6y agoI am not saying you cannot write code without them, but that you cannot do away with them without losing what they bring.
