It kind of is? All the partial-typing systems are too complex and usually broken in various ways. Compare to eg Elm or Gleam which are typed and super simple.

It kind of isn't. We are talking about using types in type optional languages. We aren't talking about the quality of those type systems or whether or not they are good type systems.

If I was comparing type systems then it'd be relevant to talk about statically typed languages like Elm or Gleam.
