The problem here is with the optional third argument to `hash-ref`. Typed Racket only allows `#f` or functions as the third argument. Plain Racket allows any non-function value as a default, or a function which is called to produce the default. Since "any non-function" is not expressible in Typed Racket, it's more restricted here.
The best option is to wrap the third argument in a thunk: `(lambda () 'other)`. As an aside, you probably don't want to use `cast` this extensively in your program.
