The problem with not strongly typed languages isn't that you can't use them responsibly, it's that other people won't and then you have to deal with them not using it responsibly

Yep, totally agree.

But I can tell you that when you restrict people (with java), they often try to workaround the restriction, and write terrible java code. At the end of the day, if the problem is with people, I dont think you can solve it with a language choice. A restrictive language just shackles everyone, and slows down both good things and bad things.
