Theoretically, Javascript is an untyped language, so there aren't supposed to really be static types. Giving type errors in this situation would be against design.

Lol you'll get no argument from me. It's not my favorite language.

JavaScript has types and it does have type errors, for instance

> null.foo
Uncaught TypeError: null has no properties

Please stop spouting nonsense on issues you know nothing about.

Dynamic types aren't static types my man. I think you got some learning to do.

Function only handles string arguments correctly. Wat.
