Damn, a sweeping generalisation if ever I've seen one. Are all the people using c++, java, haskell just mediocre devs because they like the safety brought by a type system over lisp or python? Microsoft, Facebook, and Google all wrote either a type system over JS or a JS alternative because of the problems they faced with vanilla JS. Facebook is even doing both ‍️. Perhaps spending some time looking at how certain libraries write their type definitions will help you learn how to use them, if you're constantly fighting you are probably missing some fundamental concept that TS operates with. TS has also gotten much better at expressing more complex types over time and there are still more things on the roadmap. For me TS only grows more useful as the size of the codebase increases. It allows safe refactorings you could only dream of in a large JS codebase.
