Static typing itself is a trade off as well. It introduces mental overhead because you are restricted to a set of statements that can be expressed using a particular type system, and this can lead to code that’s written for the benefit of the type checker rather than a human reading it. Everything is a trade off in practice.
You mean code that’s written to the benefit of a low efficiency enterprise workflow, which is my love hate relationship with Typescript. Best out choice out of a pile of shit.
That’s not what I’m saying. I think static typing introduces a certain set of trade offs that some people prefer. You restrict the set of statements that are possible to express to ones that can be checked by the type system, and as a result you get additional compile time guarantees. For example, Lemmy devs prefer this trade off and it has nothing to do with enterprise workflows.
