Many people in the PR mentioned the complexity that Typescript brings. But wasn't it an over simplification from the language from the beginning?

I mean, in the context of JS 10 years ago, Typescript in indeed overly complex, but in the context of today's JS running servers and very complex apps at scale, it just seems sane to back up the code with types, just as most other languages would do..

In my opinion it's now a required complexity to build up a lib with some stability and a safe DX for contributors
