your "just looking at the data" vs. looking for "get" methods is really about abstract data types v. procedural data abstraction (aka OOP, representing the data as a bunch of methods), not so much about untyped v. typed. you could represent data in an untyped language as a tuple of getter functions and the problem would be even worse there.
