I'm not up to date on what people are working on, but I just mean that type stripping is probably not the final solution to a roadmap of node-typescript compatibility?

That I would imagine there are other features being proposed that will continue to develop this compatibility?

The difference between type stripping and implementing other behaviour is precisely what is being flagged as a problem with enums in this thread. If you only have type stripping – which is the present day situation for Node users – then using enums will break TypeScript that you would otherwise be able to execute.
