This is why I try my damnedest not to write in weakly typed languages.

string + object makes no logical sense, but the language will be like "'no biggie, you probably meant string + string so let's convert the object to string"! And so all hell breaks loose when the language's assumption is wrong.

You don't necessarily need types for that kind of thing though, a strict linter that flags that code works just as well
