That is a valid approach in any language. Static or not. Doesn't change my point that heavily. And it is all too possible to pick a bad parsing/binding language such that protocol changes in the request are now foot guns.

That's true, but static languages are not worse at handling dynamic data. From the same author:

To an extent, I agree. I'm just pointing out that this is a bit of a bad example. I want there to be dynamic inspection of input.
That said, maps as the only tool is clearly messy. And is a straw man.
