I love TypeScript. But let's not use it to excuse our present situation. OCaml shares many properties with TypeScript, especially when TypeScript is used in a functional way with inferred types propagating through the system. And the tooling for OCaml has run for a long time on vastly less powerful machines.
Just yesterday, VSCode had a UI lock for a good 5-10 seconds in a pretty small typescript project. It easily could have been some extension I had installed somewhere. But our current ecosystem solves for the combination of satisfying business managers (fast iteration) and developer enjoyment over producing long term stable and reliable programs that can run on minimal hardware.
