Kostis,

I'll give you the benefit of a doubt and ponder how Wrangler would  
have helped me switch from tuples to records everywhere in OpenPoker.

I have a hunch that "typing things up" would have taken almost as long  
as the refactoring job itself. And then I would have had to retype  
everything again for records.

I'll take static typing and type inference over dynamic typing almost  
any day of the week.
