Pattern matching and guards as a form of natural type specification?
Forget the typespecs. Have a boundary layer where you check the shape of things and their types as they enter your system and possibly convert them to some type you need inside your system. Norm is great for this.

Erlang/OTP 24 Highlights
I generally verify types only at the boundaries of my application (or very critical modules) using norm[1].
Either you have a strict type system that does not have an "any" type (yes, I'm looking at you Typescript), or you have a flexible type system like Python/Erlang/Elixir and you do runtime type checking whenever it's needed.
I'm writing more Typescript code than I would in Javascript for almost no type safety benefits (but for documentation, it's awesome).
