IMO this is a very pragmatic approach to converting a large project from JS to TS. It's the approach I've been using to gradually convert large existing codebases over to TS without committing to a huge up-front refactor. Definitely agree with you about the IDE experience, just that alone is enough for me to justify the transition.
