I'm interested in the issue with using env, but I find you explanation a but hard to follow. What are some situations that lead to the problems you are describing. I'm currently using env in some gems and if there is a strong argument against it, I don't mind switching it.

If you going to do that... start off with a PEG, way more powerful.

There is a PEG library for ruby somewhere.

Have you come across the Object Role Modelling variant of that acronym...

Seems to be languishing.
Now mash that up with http://www.thethirdmanifesto.com/ and you have a killer.

As soon as a "round trippable" language of the power of ruby, but more
automagically analyzable/provable appears on the horizon... I'm
learning it.

See comment above.

I also believe static / strict typing is inverted.

Programmers should write code dynamically as per Ruby dynamic / duck
typing... but the compiler should infer what types are required by the
signatures of the methods applied to them, and then check that the
code would work.

ie. 99% of code could be  statically checked to detect NoMethodError
exceptions. (Of course the very dynamic nature of ruby makes it
impossible to detect 100%)
