I'd love to see DScript one day ...

By adding asserts, testing, logging and if available: static 
analysis. :-) Just adding an assert can help a lot on static 
analysis.

But I'd say that gradual typing is a pretty nice tradeoff. It is 
faster to iterate without all the typing syntax, and then you can 
add the types when you are happy with the result.

Although the best solution would probably be to throw a "switch" 
on the static analysis before release so that all undecided types 
(not able to deduce it by static analysis) are caught before the 
program is shipped.
