This must be why there are no good compilers for dependently typed languages. :)

So IMO static typing is good, but it's only with functional programming that it really shines.
You can go one step further: if you start using dependent types, you'll see that it gets yet harder to get your program to type-check, and once it does, you don't even bother to run it since it's so blindingly obvious that it's correct.
