Basically add in every point (Node.js and Deno creator) Ryan Dahl made recently in explaining why Deno moved away from TS internally.

I've been warning about all of these points regarding TS for years, even while using it and appreciating some of its features when doing so.

Deno moved away from TS... But moving to Rust. An even more strict statically typed language.

The difference is that Rust is strictly typed by default, not a layer on top trying to hack the underlying language into behaving like a statically typed one.
