I am not mistaken. From Typescript design goals:

Non-goals

  • ...
  • Add or rely on run-time type information in programs, or emit different code based on the results of the type system. Instead, encourage programming patterns that do not require run-time metadata.

Is that a problem?

The nesting on comments maybe isn't clear - but I think only one of my comments was directed specifically to you ;)

edit: And just to be clear: I thought your article was interesting; but the focus on TS as the solution to the problems you described could be inferred by some to mean that JS was the cause of those problems.
