Love the beauty of Scheme, but lack of types (mypy Python / Java dev/ TS dev) infuses fear to me.

I think with a little of patience I can get by.

You should try typed Racket!

Will do. I have also found that 3 days ago

fantastic for research

CL is decent in this regard: http://alhassy.com/TypedLisp

I meant regarding types, I think the equivalent to the other link would be Coalton: https://github.com/coalton-lang/coalton

I don’t have much experience with CL, but I was always a bit put off by a mixture of different paradigms it has, ie it’s not being a pure or kinda pure functional language.

That's an advantage for me, tbh.
