I'm not making a claim about all languages, I'm talking about languages that support any kind of extensible type validation, whether statically or at runtime.

If you're willing to include dynamic types, then I really don't know what you're even talking about. Literally no language I know of doesn't do validation at runtime: assembly does type validation at runtime (try dividing by zero).
