I, on the other hand, would pick TS over .NET or Java any day. But I am sure you will conclude that it can only be because I am no good at my job.

No, I'm sure you have your reasons, but deserializing and validating is much more painful in typescript than it is in .Net or Java so I'm not sure why you would choose that
It would be best to abandon javascript and typescript as backend languages. I don't mind them on the frontend because a typescript compiler is useful when the application you're writing is originating data and not receiving it. And javascript does DOM manipulation admirably. However, we live in a world where humans are more expensive than computers. If I had my way, we'd write C# backends and Angular/Typescript frontends, but that's not the world we live in. Everything has to be JS because most people employed as "software engineers" are not truly very good at their jobs
