OP (aikah) didn't mention anything regarding expresiveness. The post that replied to that one brought up the expresiveness issue.

That being said, yes, it has been shown that, for large projects, statically typed languages are strictly superior than dynamically typed ones.

OK but he quoted the expressiveness in his reply which I thought meant that was the point he was addressing.

More like the point you wanted him to address so you could add a snarky reply.

Utter nonsense, he replied to a comment about expressiveness with [1], its only natural that I assumed he was saying that lack of static typing lead to lack of expressiveness.

[1] ES6 isn't statically typed. It might be better for you , it is not for me.
