I don't do (much) frontend development, so I haven't had a chance to use it, but it looks like esbuild does do better: https://esbuild.github.io/ https://esbuild.github.io/ -- are you guys able to use that?
I agree with the sentiment, though! And it's part of the reason I like Go: build speeds are fast, especially incremental builds (which is almost all the time, given how it caches compiled packages).
