>A lot of people who stick with expressive static type systems find the process of fixing type errors quite enjoyable. I really like the experience

So maybe liking developing in them depends on having that personality trait? (or typeclass if you prefer, pun intended).

Maybe, I don't know. The psychology of programming language preference seems like a pretty interesting topic. Enjoying programming at all seems like it might depend on some quirks; I don't know if there's a significant difference to make you inherently prefer fixing type errors over fixing unit tests or whatever.
