> Hard to imagine a strictly typed future for Python On the contrary, the dynamic nature of python can make it seem like inaccessible black-magic where you don't even know where to look in the code to see what's even possible. Stronger types will empower users to understand their ecosystems. I've spent countless hours in rails/django land trying to figure out what's even possible with an object that the ORM or whatever gives me. The human-flavored docs kinda outline it, but if you're in IDE-land, context-switching to prose isn't productive. Types help humans develop and debug, but they make library authors jump through acrobatics to express what their magic does. This is a limitation of the type-checker implementation(s) not having a strong syntax or notion to capture the runtime-dynamic polymorphism, but it doesn't mean that the concept of types is a flawed idea or not worth using when appropriate. Don't throw the baby out with the bath-water.
