> I find that if I want type safety, I'd rather branch out to other languages that were designed for it from the start. Those other languages don't have pandas, scikit-learn, pytorch. If you are building on top of Python's data science and machine learning ecosystem, it's nice to have both the wide range of libraries available in Python, and type safety. Even if the annotations get a bit ugly looking.
