Hard disagree. Is that a joke? Type is far More important than name. Just ask the compiler.
Maybe this comes from a non-typed language perspective... As someone who learned in Java, I do not like it because yeah, type is way more important. If someone was coming from Python, I can see why they might think this...
Script languages are quick and dirty (but slow), I hate it when they try to shoehorn every high level concept into them.
