When Typescript finishes their Go rewrite that will become irrelevant, and I rather have the compiler from the same people that design the language.

For that example sure, and admittedly the entire JavaScript/TypeScript processing ecosystem is moving in that direction. But the TypeScript compiler is not the only CPU-bound JavaScript out there.

There are plenty of memory safe compiled languages to rewrite that JavaScript into.
