The lack of a strict type system is, what drives me away from python (there is a lot of other stuff I also dont like, but its lack of a type systems is one of the biggest reasons). My first language was Java, which I learned during highschool and while I thought that the strict type system was annoying, working with Python made me realise how much I hate not having a strict type system. In every god damn function you have to manually check for the type you received to make sure everything works as expected.
