  Not OP, but generally the arguments I’ve been told are:

  Microsoft is an abomination (true).

  “Don’t make me explicitly state types; it is too confusing!” Installs 20 libraries including fucking pad left to eek out basic functionality.

  Strongly typed haters are right up there with curly brace haters.
