Static typing is better than dynamic typing in programming languages.
They are harder to use on prototyping stage when you are discovering what actually you need to write. That's why language with optional static typing (like TypeScript) are the best of both worlds. You can prototype without types and add them when you have discovered what you need.

Static typing is better than dynamic typing in programming languages.
If the programmer gets the types of the objects he needs to create wrong, as it usually is when requirements are given piecemeal and evolving, it becomes hard to restructure statically typed programs and that encourages programmers to introduce hacks instead of refactoring.
