I'm a big fan of mypy and static typing as a concrete improvement to Python, but this criticism is so superior to the original article that all I can say is bravo.
Typescript's type system, of course, had and has the advantage of being a clean sheet design with an intermediate compilation step, so the comparison is hardly apples to apples. But there's no denying that I wish frequently that Python could have opted for a more powerful static type system.
