You are comparing apples to oranges here.

I also agree that type system in C++ is not perfect and is rarely used in a sensible manner. Yet I would rather look for inspiration in functional statically-typed languages rather than in specialized "multi-paradigm" dynamically-typed ones.

I know it's not fair, but because I write identical apps in both languages, it's one that comes to mind frequently and it becomes very apparent how powerful C# is when it comes to Rapid Application Development.

Why you consider C# to be dynamically-typed?

Just as an FYI, C# is more strongly-typed than C++.
