That is very appreciated! Sorbet is shamefully underrated. While there are some weaknesses in the tool (which are fixable), the criticisms it typically gets from the community are unwarranted/unfair IMO. For example, I've heard that it makes the code too verbose. But in my experience, inserting T.cast or T.unsafe is more of a shortcut and often a code smell, and lately since becoming more fluent with it, I'm rarely using casts anymore (though its unavoidable sometimes if you want to avoid T.untyped usages).
I think it has a solid foundation and puts Ruby at the top of my list of good languages if coupled together. It is very performant compared to other typed analysis tools in my opinion.
Please join the Slack community and ask questions if you have any. I'm not part of the Sorbet project or the companies that sponsor it, just an avid enthusiast. https://sorbet.org/en/community
