If you are unable to find the type of a right-hand-side expression that appears in an assignment or initialization, then the environment does not allow you to work and it must be changed.
The redundant writing of the type on the left-hand side does not help you, because without knowing the type of the right-hand side you cannot recognize a bug. Not specifying the type on the left-hand side can actually avoid many bugs in complex environments, because there is no need to update the code that uses some API, whenever someone changes the type of the result, unless the new type causes some type mismatch error elsewhere, where it would be reported, allowing to make fixes at the right locations in the source code, not at the spurious locations of variable definitions, where updating the type will not prevent the real bugs to occur at the points of use of that variable.
The only programming languages that could be used without the ability of searching the definition of any symbol, were the early versions of FORTRAN and BASIC, where the type of a symbol was encoded in the name of the symbol, by using a one-letter prefix in FORTRAN (like IVAR vs. XVAR) and a one-symbol suffix in BASIC (like X vs. X$ vs. X%).
The "Hungarian" convention for names used in early Microsoft Windows has been another attempt of encoding the types of the symbols in their names, following the early FORTRAN and BASIC style, but most software developers have disliked this verbosity.
