The problem here is that "mechanical empathy" is for most neurotypical humans at odds with fun. It's hard to say that static typing is "fun" but at this point the benefits are so abundantly obvious that it's been shoehorned into Python via Pydantic and MyPy/Ty I'd argue as well that "fun" for a lot of programmers seemingly entails over-abstracting, inventing complicated interfaces & following Clean Code dogma etc. I think there's an inherent tension between what's fun and what is actually good software from a purely mechanical standpoint of performance and functionality
