So it seems the thesis of some pretty in the know mathematicians is that the secret of dependent types is knowing when not to use them. Is that necessarily an argument against Lean or Rocq? In the sense could one simply just not use the dependent types on offer in these languages in certain circumstances, and try emulate an Isabelle proof using custom built tactics?
