Aside from C++, you can also have typing atrocities in Java, and I bet in C# and other strongly typed languages I haven't tried, too...

No one is saying TypeScript is as robust as a baked-in typing system, but it's a godsend for ~98% of code one writes in JS.

As a fan of typescript, I have to say, no you can't be THIS crazy with types in C++, C# or java

The reason ts can be unreadable is actually same to why haskell, scala, ocaml etc are: the type systems are much more expressive so people keep pushing it.

C++ has a much more complicated (Turing complete) type system than C# and Java.
