Yeah, having just jumped into ts after a long js hiatus since back when The Good Parts was still surprising, it's quite awesome to see how much of what I assumed to be "ts stuff" is actually just postdeluvian js. Makes ts more attractive, not less. I do wonder however of it was possible to identify parts of that language superset that are fully redundant (as in not even required for exotic edge cases) and let loose some draconian linter?
Sure, but that's still seems quite mix and match, anything goes, choose your own adventure. There are many positives about this approach, but as a learner a little more common ground between codebases would certainly be appreciated.
