Until typescript is doing runtime type checking it is just an aggressive linter and that’s okay. Having something to sanity check that the things you are passing around should have the right interface is valuable for developers. Compile time type checking is not going to be 100% effective at runtime. Let’s be honest it doesn’t actually need to be to provide a lot of value.

I don’t think it’s accurate to say it’s “just an aggressive linter”. It’s a distinct programming language, with language features that don’t exist in JavaScript.
But that’s true for literally any language.
