Because at the end of the day TypeScript is still Javascript and it's still bad. Just has some verbose formats to try and make weakly typed language (javascript) appear to be strongly typed. It adds more build steps to what shouldn't be there; build steps make sense for apps, they make much less sense for libraries.

I'm sorry. Whoever wrote that should give up trying to write articles. It's poorly written and will never convince anyone to change their mind. It's shit. "I know how to convince people they're wrong. Insult them. Setup a ton of strawman arguments. Genius."
Whoever wrote that is bad and should feel bad.
Which one? There were multiple links in that comment.
Second one. Just realized there were two. Being close together and the first being long enough to get trailing "..." it all just looked like one big link when I first saw it. May just be Kbin displaying it that way.
