Other than Rust the only other "pragmatic" language I can think of that has as much of a robust type system is Typescript. As you say anything else you'd have a hard time convincing the rest of your team to use.


Typescripts type system is anything but robust. It's escape hatch build upon escape hatch. Don't get me wrong, it has to be like that due to it allowing gradual typing and essentially beeing a superset of js.
