I'm not sure how you could've gotten that idea from my comment. If I put it on a line, I'd say (no typing) < (python optional types) < (elixirs structs and pattern matching) < (typescripts types|interfaces) < (real static types from Java etc)

Hmm, ok, but structs and pattern matching aren’t static types. They certainly don’t offer anything like the kind of type safety you can obtain (with some effort) with mypy or other Python type systems. Mypy is quite similar to Typescript.
