But Python is strongly typed. If you say x=2, type(x) will say “int”.
It does suffer from an excessive overloading of operators (“a” times 6 shouldn’t work). But that’s neither here nor there.
If Python wasn’t strongly typed, it wouldn’t be conceptually possible to move it towards explicit typing as the current push is.
Now, it’s not statically typed. You don’t get to assign values and interpretations to memory addresses. This is what “performant” people usually defend. But _that_ has nothing to do with typing assuming semantic roles in codebases.
