I want the ability to specify "contracts" to guide how things should behave,
but there is no reason to make that any more difficult than it needs to be.

It is a whole black art how to figure out the trade off between ease of use,
clarity, expresive power and safety.

At any rate, I do have an affection for dynamic languages, but it has to be
Lisp instead of Python :-).
