A personal anecdote of using javascript and getting a function variable wrong ended up taking 30 minutes to find out what went wrong.

The error won't exactly point me to the source of bug and I was getting vague message that some data was missing .

And there were many instances of same throughout my project experience.

With typescript you will know instantly. The javascript being weakly typed compared to python necessitates use of typescript.
