What means "strong typing" is very well defined. But most understandings I found do not allow implicit null returns to be "strong" typing. Also: the "strong" thing is at odds with the "dynamic" thing, you cannot have both.

No, it's not "very well defined". It's actually pretty poorly defined and has a variety of contradictory definitions attached to it.

That what I tried to type, somehow I forgot to type "not"... Thanks for setting that straight.
