Have to add that we work exclusively in strongly-typed languages. Kinda want to see how it plays out, but I can't help but argue with him, so I think I'll just go.

You said it's not runtime type checking but then switched to "strict type checking" - those aren't the same. Other person has it right, it has runtime type checking. The type checking happens when running your code. I don't think that's particularly useful, it's pretty much sugar on top of what would throw an error anyway.
