Perhaps it's just a factual element. Or perhaps the intention is `s/python/pragmatic/`. Yeah, python sucks in many ways but is it really so horrible? I know! Let's ask the reader to get intimate with a static compiler. If they're "smart" enough to satisfy (or trick) the compiler, then they've earned the "reward" of being able to execute their program.

There is value is static typing, but there are many instances where that cost is not worth the reward.
