It's not on agenda and it will never happen. There are so many languages with fine typing, why break a dynamic one by adding stuff to it?

I believe Matz has said that it is on the agenda for Ruby 3.0: that it will have static typing and that it will be optional.

TIL, I guess that making Ruby 3.0 3x faster (3x3 initiative) and adding optional static typing at the same time might be quite hard.

I think the person you are replying to will disagree that it is "breaking" the language.
