I like when it simply does not compile, which also helps if there are other various team members (or future me) who can not always be trusted to ignore typing errors. Also, I may be wrong, but I feel like JSDoc types are a bit limiting (and more verbose & extra effort) compared to inline TypeScript. Coming from Python, I really enjoy the typing power of TS and do not want to compromise on that…

I prefer to just run tsc to check for type errors on GitHub commits instead of needing them for every change.

And yeah inline types are more verbose but I prefer to use .d.ts files for definitions and then declare with a comment (vim lets me move to definitions with ctrl-] which is nice).

I also come from a Go background so I actively don't like using the more esoteric and complex types that typescript provides.
