I've seen this criticism that it's "difficult to reason about which method will actually be called because of the type system" once before, but it absolutely flummoxes me... I have literally never been confused about which method is going to be called by my code, and I'm not even a proper computer scientist (just a regular scientist scientist).

Maybe this is just an issue of not having years of OO habits influencing the way I reason about dispatch in Julia?? Honestly not sure.
