I'm not sure I follow. I don't find "2000-line functions whose branches ..." to be a requirement for polymorphism.

I'm also not against static typing, but I am against thinking it's a silver bullet. Consider this: `function inc(x: number): number { return x - 1; }`. It passes the type checker, but the blow torch still burned you.
