That's a weird objection, because Typescript classes are literally Javascript classes[1].

There was plenty of outrage when classes were added to JS. “JS uses prototypal inheritance, not OOP!”
I'm still a bit cranky about that, but because objects should be good enough for anyone. They aren't even really classes anyway.
If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, for all intents and purposes, it is a duck.
