I think this article highlights a misconception that type skeptics often have, which is that type systems are some sort of enterprise solution that cargo-cultists have come to embrace as "best practices". Either that, or that type enthusiasts are just people that love wearing hairshirts.

Maybe there are some people like that, but for many, types simply are the best way to think about and structure code. They provide a sort of interactive feedback loop that actually makes the development process more pleasant. And these skeptics seem entirely incapable of conceiving that people pick types not because they were looking for some sort of organizational "solution" but because they genuinely prefer the mode of code-writing that type systems enable.
