I really think that Rust has one of the best designed/inspired type systems.

If I had to rewrite a Python project, I would consider Rust or another statically typed language before choosing to continue in a dynamic language with types bolted on. I hope the situation improves for dynamic languages with optional types, but it still feels weird and bolted onto the language because it is.

I'm a professional .Net Core developer, but I'd throw my hat in the ring for Swift on this one. While obviously not exactly a 1:1 with Rust, there is definitely some common benefits between the two. Though, from what I understand of Rust (very little), its typing system is slightly more strict than Swift's which is slightly more strict than C#'s.
