I think you're being too unfair. People aren't dumb.

It's also about how much better.

Beyond a decent enough type system, the advantages start to flatten and other factors start to matter more.

Can't speak too much for python, but as someone who's written large amounts of code in OCaml and Typescript, the strictest compiler options for Typescript are good enough.

No, people aren't dumb. They're practical. And so they choose to do what is practical, which in this case is to choose Python. And, to me, that makes it the better language.
