- themikesanto 5y agoType errors are a user problem already, if they make their way into production.
- jakelazaroff 5y agoNot necessarily — maybe the error is an incorrect argument to a function that’s never used, for example. The issue is, what should the browser do if it encounters a type error? Should it just refuse to interpret the entire script? That’s super heavy-handed when it’s possible that the error doesn’t even matter in practice.
