Yes then you might as well use some other language that uses types but also gets you performance. I agree the ecosystem is missing but hey we have LLMs now

I don't understand why you keep bringing up performance. If you're considering using Python, as many projects are, performance is obviously not a concern.
Python is a good language. Its ecosystem is rich, and I find it very productive. I want to use it, but I also want as much static analysis as possible, so I use ruff and pyright.
Performance isn’t the only important metric. There are other pros to weigh. For many apps a language might be performant enough, and bring other pros that make it more appealing than more performant alternatives.
