This is also why app backends don't really need statically typed languages, no matter how big the company is. You have a well-defined API on the front, and you have a well-defined DB schema on the back, that's good enough.

The static typing makes even less sense at finer code scopes, like I don't need to keep asserting that a for-loop counter is an int.
