I would be proud of being a warlock, but I’m more like the guy who speaks to the guy who speaks to the guy who speaks to the warlock who speaks to the stones.

Typing when you need it gives you more freedom over a toggle. You can choose to type some parts of the code while leaving other parts untyped.

For example, if I’m writing a quick and simple Python script I may forgo typing, but when iterating on it I’d go back and add the types I need.

Python 3.x will never have static typing because that would break backwards compatibility.

However, typing hints have been Integrated into Python for a while, and you are heavily recommended to use them, so your IDE can enforce typing.
