If you want the compiler to be useful while you are typing, then the designers of your tooling have to do something. You can argue that they are doing the wrong thing, you can argue that having the compiler running while you are typing isn't worth it because you don't need the feedback, but don't misidentify why they are doing it; they aren't doing it to help you save a millisecond on typing, that isn't the concern at all.
