99+% of Python code is not intentionally using dynamic typing in order to take advantage of wacky SICP algorithms. It's good that Python allows that flexibility, but it's also good that in much more common cases you can indicate that a function argument should be a string rather than an int and have IDEs and linters be aware of that.
