On a similar note, one of my biggest pet peeves loosely typed languages.
IMO the ideal is optional typing. Allow the user to specify variable as desired. Therefore, you can use it for bug prevention or runtime efficiency when necessary, but avoid the overhead when its not. I hear Julia does a good job in this regard.
