Honestly, I think a lot of the problem is people not learning about error handling properly. My background is in C (a typed language) but I can still learn to handle type errors without too much trouble. I think people get used to C# with it’s strongly-typed (optional) traits and think that’s the only way to do programming.
Obviously it’s pretty subjective, but many people do level the complaint of Lua not being typed and I have never seen it as an issue.
