This was the case of third party scripting languages such as Lua, Python, Squirrel, etc. When we originally made Godot, we were completely certain that we wanted our main scripting language to be dynamically typed due to the high accessibility this provides. Why Visual Scripting? So then, again, why visual scripting?
