Dynamic Clarity: The Crutch of Static Typing
Working solo often leads to a preference for dynamic languages, as collaboration typically highlights the need for good design and documentation over static typing.

This suggests that effective code practices are more crucial than the typing paradigm itself, emphasizing that clarity and understanding in code should take precedence over reliance on static types.
