Oh hello & wow... now if only I knew who you are... :) Those tweets really weren't meant to discourage people from using CLJ(S) at all!! I was merely trying to explain why, personally, I think TS is better suited for my own use cases (and those of my job)... I'm not building "standard" websites and for the tools I'm dealing with, CPU performance is more important than for most other web apps. I sometimes just felt constrained by some of the features & indirections people usually come to Clojure/Script for in the first place. For example, when generating or processing large amounts of geometry I really don't want or even need immutable data structures by default and so I wanted to have the freedom of being able to break out from this more easily. In some cases I too wanted to have more of a 1:1 correspondence between the code I write and what it ends up as in JS, something the combo of CLJS + GCC made hard(er). ES6 syntax offers many niceties (e.g. array and object destructuring, iterators, async fns) and without those I'd probably be still using CLJS more.
