Static typing doesn't have much value if there are proper unit tests. So it's fairly obvious that if people think there is value in static typing then they are shipping broken code to their customers.
It's called ratting yourself out.

Wasteful unit tests that assert your types are right don't have much value if there is a proper type system.

Quit being childish.
"Wasteful unit tests that assert your types are right"
You don't test whether the types are right, you test if your code actually does the right thing. That's what's important to your customers.
The types getting tested is incidental.
