To me whether or not using JS or TS as the "gold standard" for a package is insignificant. I've argued that JavaScript is not the same as TypeScript. It may be transpiled but it's not the same. Hence, being kinda pedantic in my rhetoric while e.g. a popularity increase in TypeScript may, strengthen e.g. the web ecosystem because more programs have less bugs because devs use types, it doesn't directly strengthen or benefit the JavaScript language (which is the one without types).
For now, what I can see is that my argument (e.g. in the comments of this thread) creates fragmentation and controversy.
