What a bizarre argument. You could replace "static" with "dynamic" and you would have an equivalent argument that would just as strongly (i.e., in fact, weakly) argue against dynamic typing. This logical hole is obvious enough to drive a bus through. I don't understand how the author wouldn't have noticed it.



The logical hole is not obvious. If it were obvious, we would all notice it, and the fact that the author didn't notice it suggests it's not obvious.


I guess this is what happens when everyone gets a trophy.


There's a joke about not checking his types in here somewhere.
