python was the first language I learned and most of what I code and I never understood this deep fear of type errors, it's pretty rarely an issue in practice

I find that most problems are type errors. I like static types because I can be lazy and code by numbers.

Yes. I like to make tons of very narrow purpose-specific types to prevent as many errors as possible.

Nothing that anybody is saying here makes sense to me but also I know people are obsessed with type so it doesn't surprise me

Programming languages are about how they make you feel. For me, dynamic types = anxiety, good static types = confidence, calm.
