    I mean, I guess, it depends on your perspective. Some folks work in garbage/proprietary languages all day and would be very glad to have Python-levels of compiler help. Others work in JS/TS and do have similar nonsense to deal with as in Python.

    But lots of languages, e.g. JVM languages, Rust etc., don’t struggle with semicolons and the like.
    And they don’t have to compile at runtime, so they can easily outclass Python for more complex error reporting, which is at least my experience.

    Personally, I have pretty much only had the experience of “tell me where the error is” in Python and TS.
