F# has a feature called type providers that make this sort of bookkeeping between the database and the code less tedious, but even if you mess it up, static typing still gives you more safety than dynamic. If your code blew up because it should have accepted an identifier it didn’t, you know that the code has not been written to handle that case and can fix it. Alternatively, you can just choose to ignore this, and do what a dynamic language does. There is nothing stopping you from being dynamic in a static language, passing everything around as a map, etc.
