Can you append a std::array<int, x> and a std::array<int, y> to get a std::array<int, x+y> with x and y chosen at runtime?

Of course not. In my understanding, the article was about static type checking, though.

It is! That's what is so cool about it! Idris lets you write an append that will work for any X and Y chosen at runtime, but will check that the result must have length X + Y at compile time.
