Yup, this is another example of people not really understanding promises in JS too well. Having to do `Promise.resolve(r + 5)` doesn't really solve that much in terms of typing, namely the fact you can return a rejected promise or throw an error and so on. As someone who wrote a promise library or two in typed languages - I don't see it as solving it at all, although what's usually done is that `Promise.resolve` is aliased to `ok` or something similar to simplify the boilerplate.
