Sorry, fixed. They also studied "time to completion" and "correctness" for a new task, and for those the dynamic languages did better.

Thanks. After commenting I read the first paper in the page you linked. The one about trying to give an advantage to dynamic languages (Groovy vs Java), and measuring time-to-completion, for 4 tasks.

Turns out a static language has a time advantage when using an API, but a dynamic one has an advantage when writing code (that nobody will reuse).
