But one compiling error is Java is 7 run time errors in python.

There is a type error and you couldn't have known it beforehand? Thanks for nothing

I find it's possible to operate Python as a statically typed language if you wanted, though it takes some setup with external tooling. It wasn't hard, but had to set up pyright, editor integration, configuration to type check strictly and along with tests, and CI.

I even find the type system to be far more powerful than how I remembered Java's to be (though I'm not familiar with the newest Java versions).

Ime anyone who is experienced enough knows how to avoid these Types of issues anyway (through tooling and good convention etc)
