Level 2 senior programmer: types are critical to ensure software runs as intended. You are here.
Level 3 greybeard: who needs typing lol, there is a time and place for them. I am here.

This is tongue-in-cheek, not meant to insult you. I get where you are coming from, but you are still giving too much importance to them. The subject matter here is me wanting to have fun, not writing medical software. Can I please have fun by writing a toy language that doesn't have a type system, or does that make me a noob?
I am probably older than you. You literally asked to be discouraged from pursuing this will-o'-th'-lisp. I offered an alternative where you stand to learn something wholly new. I know it is wholly new to you from falsehoods you repeat.
Again: if you imagine types are only or even mainly for correctness, you have much to learn. You can start anytime you like. It will stretch your brain in new ways that are of no relevance to medical software.
