You can't possibly dispute this fact.

No producer of any product -- software included -- wouldn't love to
live in a world where errors are discovered immediately and fixed
before that.

You can only dispute the trade-off between the cost it takes to
get error messages at compile time (and the cost of figuring out
how to fix them) vs the cost of just accepting a run-time error.
Since we are all on a Scheme mailing list, I bet that we more or
less are in violent agreement on this cost. (Otherwise we'd be
on the ML or Haskell list or on the Python or ASM one.)
