In my experience static types increase my development velocity.

I can make changes and find many bugs at compile time without writing tests. I still write tests of course but I have to write fewer, and I rarely waste time fixing trivial things that raise errors at runtime.

It is also much quicker for me to navigate the code. I can find definitions for identifiers instantly and get my mental model refreshed easily every time I switch contexts.

I use dynamic languages too, and I find myself spending more time on things that static languages do for me.
