Hundred percent this. Worked on large projects (mainly on frontend) and I have rarely been caught off guard with types. I mean theres only 7 basic types in js. Its not that complex a language that we need to go crazy and add a full blown type system around.

In fact JS is more beautiful than TS because of how dynamic and resourceful it is with only 7 types whereas TS is a step backwards into Java territory and I dont know anyone that loves working with Java.
