So this advantage is about writing code that isn't intended to be compiled or run yet. I can do that in a statically typed language too: I just put the code in a comment block.

Or am I missing something here?

Nope, you're not missing anything. That's another valid workaround, which undermines the practical advantage of untyped languages yet a little bit more.
