I would argue this is a false equivalency. The explanation is that Python is too entrenched to replace, not that it is somehow superior for this use case because it is dynamically typed.

You can't say Julia hasn't given it a serious try and hasn't gotten first-rate marketing treatment by being name checked in "Ju-Py-Ter" notebooks and other placements. Instead, Julia has serious deficiencies https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32806179 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32806179 It's certainly not proven a static language can't cover this use case but in other areas static languages really have proven their merit.
