In dynamically typed languages, adding types can stop things blowing up at runtime. In compiled languages, all the type-inference is still done at compile time, so if it compiles than you're not going to get a crash from accidentally adding a string to an integer at runtime.

The template language is weakly typed and code written in it, too, can “crash” when it runs (which is the compilation time) for the same reasons.
