You need to study ML based languages like Haskell and reason to see why reason is actually more explicit then type script. It takes some effort but in the end you'll have a better understanding of programming in general. Typescript is missing the Variant type primitive so it has to be written in a roundabout way to imitate that primitive (and it most likely isn't type checked correctly either). The extra code you are writing in TS is not explicit... a better term is obfuscates.
