I'm currently writing the follow up to https://noelrappin.com/blog/2024/08/what-about-static-typing-in-ruby/

I'm almost talking myself into trying a hybrid approach where you don't static type the arguments to methods but you do type return values.

The idea here is that if you are running a “be open in what you accept" setup where you are coercing values anyway, setting a type on the result of the coercion gives you some tool benefit without loosing flexibility…
