> You can specify basically any type you what... stuff like “The Number 4 Or A Function That Returns The Number 4 Or An Object With Any Attribute Which Is Equal To 4” and TS will just work with that. Hi, an amateur here. When I started to learn JS and later TS I always disliked this expressiveness. Like when the first parameter you pass to JQuery can be anything in the world: a DOM element, or collection of elements, or an object, or a function - and only then you declare what you want to do with it. Yes, the syntax is short. And you pay for it with a lousy code readability and steep learning curve. My question is, is there a name for this "expressiveness"? Is there a name for the opposite? I am looking at the definition of AssemblyScript: "...compiles a strict variant of TypeScript (basically JavaScript with types)". But the word "type" is again used recursively here. Is there a name for this "strict type"?
