Probably a little. I might lack average cognitive facilities, but I find that types pay off for me very early. When I worked in a Python shop, I would prototype in Go because the types helped me move fast, and then I could port it to Python (often for a huge performance loss, not to speak of maintainability) to integrate with the code base.

On the other hand, Python’s repl was nice for a small handful of tasks (although I mostly used it for figuring out what the actual type of some variable was, which is obviously a non-problem in the statically typed world).
