Re: Pipes.
The problem with DSLs -- compared to just writing JavaScript/TypeScript -- is the IDE experience is incredible. It takes a formidable team to create both the software for parsing the DSL, and the language service to provide intellisense and ordinary language-feature goodies. At that point, why not just use a conventional programming language? Formatting a string is an extremely normative thing to do; it doesn't seem to necessitate the DSL plus all the tooling that elevates the developer experience of using the DSL.
