> When you write in Typescript, it generates some Javascript that is sometimes hard to recognize as your code.

Every time I have tried to compare the output of `tsc`, I have reached the opposite conclusion.

It's incredibly faithful most of the time. And when not, it's consistent. So if you understand why it does what it does once, life becomes much easier.

Perhaps you are referring to minified code. Even then, with source-maps correctly setup, I rarely if ever have a reason to leave TypeScript-land.

Without the type-checker, my productivity (and sanity!) would likely be cut in 1/2 or more.

I'd be very interested in examples that resulted in your opinion.
