> do you really need to analyze compilation logs to arrive to the conclusion that you should use an IDE and that types are helpful ?
Yes you do. That's the point of the article - we should apply basic scientific method to programming (that's what distinguishes us from magicians).
> There is also no real hint into why getting this error...
This part of the story is better explained here https://blog.buildo.io/http-routes-at-buildo-1424250c41d3

A little more regarding that error from the same site:
"Spray-routing uses a cool and crazy DSL to write routes in Scala, based on the magnet pattern. Despite it being all nice and flexible, it’s also extremely frustrating to debug."
From, "What's Wrong With Routes?"
