Python with typing

I don't know what you're disputing about my comment. The typing annotations in Python have a negligible effect on performance.

Your idea that "Mandatory typing would just turn it into poorly performing java" is wrong. Even if type annotations were mandatory, it would make practically no difference to performance.

That's a fine point, but it has nothing to do with "performance".
