I don't think this is universally true, no. Historically there have been large migrations of developers from traditional statically typed languages towards Ruby/Python/JS/Groovy/Clojure. In fact, Clojure was designed by and is used by well experienced developers fed up with the added complexity of type systems.

By "traditional statically typed languages" I assume you mean things like C or Java, whereas I'm talking more about Haskell-like type systems. Perhaps that's really an optional first step in the journey: from [Java to] Ruby/Python/JS/Groovy/Lua [to Lisp] to a language with a real type system. The further along you go, the more mathematification your programming undergoes.
