Is it really that much for the browser vendors to support TypeScript? Then, the only reason to compile would be to optimize for production by removing the excess code of the data-typing.

Browser support for TypeScript would invite developers to use those browsers, which aligns with browser-vendor interests.

This proposal backed by Microsoft could change TypeScript as we know it. Microsoft plans to handle Types in TypeScript as Comments.
