Perhaps initial prototyping is better in dynamic languages.

I don't agree. I have experience in Ruby and Common Lisp, but since I learned Haskell and OCaml I don't want to prototype in the two first ones ever again.

Not having types makes things a lot harder to reason about, and much more error-prone.

Absolutely not! For prototyping, there's nothing better than "railroad-oriented programming", where you just describe the shape of your data using types and then fill in the blanks.
