Exactly this. Typing in the final version is great. Typing up front is almost always getting in the way.

Most interesting programs involve a lot of figuring things out as you go, and so any "tax" on that process is one you hope to avoid. The last thing you want is for the language itself to be the source of that tax any more than it has to be.
