I am a TypeScript developer for the past 6 years. I am not at all angry and definitely not expecting issues I have with SPA development to be magically solved, I am simply excited about being able to use languages with type systems similar to TS but without the JS under it - not that I care much about it, but it would be nice to go a step further with the type system-language integration, which TypeScript is unwilling to do.
WebAssembly is a done deal, all browsers support it, now we're waiting for reference types and GC, once that lands (ref types are already available in some browsers), the web will not be tied to JS in any way. I think it's fair to say that the world has moved beyond JS.
Btw I think people doing UI apps in C# (Blazor is probably second largest Wasm community after Rust) are fully aware of the hurdles of UI development.
