> This type of objection is only raised by people who have never seriously used Python before

How serious is “serious”? Because I’ve worked on millions-of-lines python projects powering billion-dollar companies, and I 100% agree that maintaining untyped python code that somebody else wrote (or that I wrote myself, 6 months ago) is a nightmare for exactly these reasons...



I mean I can't even imagine what would lead anyone to write millions of lines of Python for a single project, so maybe there's a level of serious above what I do. Maybe you're doing it wrong?


How many engineers does your company have? When you have thousands it is easy to write millions of lines of code.
