That's pretty much what I mean. A good linter will influence how you write code; e.g. over time, you'll have internalised to initialise a variable before using it, to name a dumb example. TypeScript is similar: yes, you'll write "regular" JavaScript, but no longer "without thinking about the types". TS very much influences how you write JS, and it makes you better for it.
