Not necessarily. Since the word "typed" language is not well-defined.

For example, typescript is a fantastic language for marshalling data and UI state since it uses substructural typing instead of nominal typing. Libraries like kysely / other ORM libraries are great examples too and easy to use, whereas in fully typed languages like Rust you would end up having to use a macro library like sqlx or having to define structs for each of your types (which would increase compile time & size)
