The 'assignability rules' of TS catches type-errors in a way that 'solves' all the problems JS ever had. You can critique the nature of that solution if you want (after all, there are an infinite number of solutions in the solution-set), but I think it's a perfect solution.

Give any good developer TS to code in, and he'll know how to use it to check every type in every variable, class, or method parameter, and the checking will be 100% perfectly reliable. That's what I mean by "problem solved".
