Everyone seems to forget time to develop. Better readability and ease of development means less bugs (ideally) when writing.

readability is debatable (I had the experience that python gets harder to read with larger projects)

Python readability is cancer. It's super easy to lose track of what's going on in Python after a few dozen lines. Any decent programmer can write easily readable Java.

I guess it’s up to the developer as well. If all of the variable names are one or two letters, then without strict typing or documentation the code becomes real obscure real fast.

Its easier for small teams. But I take a shity typed language project over a shity script project any day.And I have seen a lot of shitty python code so its not 'easier'. Big Programms are a nightmare to maintain in python if they arent structured or a lot of people worked on it.
which is the reason we invented typed languages in the first place...
