A question from Bjarne S' book

When Bjarne S. talks about failure of taking advantages of C++ Design, he
says: "Ignore the static type checking and express the design in such a way
that implementations are constrained to simulate dynamic type checking."

What does this actually mean? Can someone clarify this? Thanks!

Please add some context. Previous and next sentence, perhaps? More if
you can (do you have a link?).

I wasn't able to find the exact quote, but he may well be referring to
24.2.3, "Ignoring Static Type Checking" in C++PL third edition.
