Yes, as everyone knows, you are only entitled to an opinion about software if you are also a successful business entrepreneur without external funding.
Good type systems increase velocity by leaving less room for error, so that you don't have to waste half your time debugging and fixing issues that could have been easily prevented. They also provide helpful structure and an IDE experience (the right values, functions, actions, etc are actually suggested for you wherever you are) that really does speed up development a lot.
There's of course always a trade-off: bad type systems can get in your way with boilerplate that you have to wrangle. But I don't think that's the typical experience.
