This is the reason I don't use the typescript compiler and instead use babel to strip the types out completely on compilation. I use vs-code's built-in type checking when coding in dev and then throw out types in prod. Fast dev builds and still get all the type checking I want. Optionally you can run the full blown typescript compiler as part of CI/CD if you want to ensure no errors or warnings hit prod.
