Dynamic languages tend to let you express yourself more easily and cleanly with less code. Paul Graham years ago wrote about how Lisp let's you write more maintainable code by being able to express yourself close to the problem domain. The power of DSLs is that it's easy to read and write code for that particular sort of task.
Another way to state the advantage of expressive languages is that the less code you have to right, the less bugs you will have. And the less code written, the less code needs to be maintained, the less needs to be read to understand what's going on.
Of course this all depends on writing clean code, not obfuscated hacks or undocumented messes with needless complexity. But that goes for all programming.
