Not much said on the category of bugs caught by Typescript. That would have been an interesting discussion.
I dip between javascript and typescript and hesitate recommending it for large scale project for a large team as much as I would like to, coming from a background of typed languages on the backend. There appears to be a need for experienced senior typescripters on the team to prevent falling into certain traps and onboarding [1].
I do wonder though how he saw typing as over-engineering. It may cause intertia which he hints at in the next sentence but over-engineering is a bit uncharitable.
