Honest review of esolang Bend2: no type inference, 9/10, 'still too easy for JS devs'

A viral sarcastic review of Bend2: a language with no type inference, no type classes, no tactics, and handwritten proofs required — dependent types with none of the ergonomics, plus affine types but not full linearity. Nonexistent ecosystem, vertical learning curve, trivial programs feel like defending a PhD thesis. Verdict: 9/10, 'still too accessible to JavaScript developers.'
