I'm not trying to be cheeky here. They have literally joked about how TypeScript versions means nothing really. So they can't just announce a new major version and drop enums completely. Maybe with a feature flag this is possible but even then, a fresh tsc --init not supporting enums is not really how TypeScript works

But they do break things and drop things. I don't see why they can't do that. I think they simply don't want to remove it very badly.
