> Worst part of writing it in python was simple misspellings in the last stages of the computation breaking things.

I'm not sure I understand. Was the typo in something like a dict key? Or did you add two of the wrong variables together? How did another language protect you from this? I fail to see how you couldn't also add two of the wrong variables (with the correct type) together in a different language.



Python (out of the box) will only complain about missing variables or methods at runtime.
