Author here. One thing that we do at Svix that I alluded to in one paragraph but I should probably have elaborated on further: thanks to libraries like Serde and Pydantic, we actually follow deserialization is validation (is that a term?), which means that we validate all of the JSON data before even creating the structures in our code.
I guess that's similar to the redis example I gave, but it essentially means that even though we get sent JSON over the wire, we validate it fully and when it gets to our code we know it's a well formatted type. So our code can assume an email type is a valid email, an ID type is a valid ID, etc.
