Are the critiques in "All the things I hate about Python" valid?

Yes, exactly. This point is evidently ignored by people who moan that
Python, though it has strong types, is prone to bugs because it has
dynamic binding.

As Steven points out, and you say so succinctly, there are plenty of
bugs a programmer will write, that a type checker can't catch. So
dynamic binding is not a barrier to catching those bugs.
