Sounds like an organizational problem, if people are passing code reviews with any littered all over the place then your engineering culture is flawed. At least at my company, you need to have a discussion explaining why any use of the any type is justified or else it will be by default rejected.


There shouldn't be _any_ need for it except for a weird, very badly documented library.


I agree it's an organizational problem; however in Delphi/Pascal I don't think you can turn off the checks at all; so, in a sense, that's a level of type checking that is comforting...
