> Right, you’re treating the code as statically typed even when it’s not. In that case you never gain the advantage of dynamic languages.
Both the things you mention can be done in statically typed languages. The only difference is in dynamic languages you don't have to declare interfaces, subclasses, etc. I just wonder whether that really is as much of an advantage as people think.
I've spend years using both types of languages and I think I think the safety of statically typed languages is usually worth the slight amount of friction it adds.
