Of all of those only CSS3 is actually a big deal for most projects (and only a subset of the new CSS3 features). But yeah the new APIs are great and more power is better. Native video/audio playback/streaming was huge as well, but only for a certain class of applications.
I was just highlighting the stuff that really made a huge difference for everyone. Even if you don't use typescript your deps probably do and your IDE can show type hints.

So, when I have the choice I just use ES2017 (whichever version that has async/await) Typescript only ever paid off in-terms of capabilities for me when my dependencies went all-in with the runtime type information - felt a lot like Java development marshalling and unmarshalling JSON to objects. But by then, my build times were turning into molasses.
