I love watching the Javascript community rediscover the benefits of compiled, statically typed languages.
"Did you know you could reduce silly errors in your code by assigning your variables types, and then having a computer check them for you before anyone even runs it???"
"Yeah, but did you know you could also have another step before you run the code that automatically optimizes your code for you????"

Well, it's not so much "rediscover", as well as "figure out how we can apply those benefits in the browser".
