Argument matching has been discussed, there've been PEPs on that, and they couldn't come up with a satisfactory syntax. And that whatever you try, 'if/elif' statements are just more readable and streamlined than any syntax they've try to come up with. As to strongly typed.

[1] certainly not at a cost of having to contend with type hierarchies of a strongly typed language.
