I am aware of 3 “rust inspired scripting” languages that have dynamic types.

Mun is not dynamic, however it does not have string support afaik.
Kotlin and Swift may be better candidates than these scripting languages for my imagined usecase.
Come to think of it, maybe I don’t have a point other then there is so many scripting language’s inspired by rust that is dropping a major convenience feature, that I am surprised is negotiable (inferred typing ).
It seems every scripting language does duck/dynamic typing (as far as I can tell this applies to Koto).
I don’t understand why…
inferred typing is nearly as easy to use while being more robust.
For me the biggest gap in programming languages is a rust like language with a garbage collector, instead of a borrow checker.
Rust has a lot of features that should be strongly considered for the next generation of programming languages such as
result/sum types
Inferred typing
Not object oriented or overly prescriptive with functional programming.
I think the closest language to filling that gap is occaml (I am not familiar with it).
I have coworker's that are more skilled in domain logic that can write basic self contained programs, but stuff like traits, OOP functional programming is a bridge too far.
I feel like a language that fills that gap could be useful, context is a manufacturing ERP system.
