Zod is quite unpleasant to use, IME, an has some edge cases where you lose code comments.

From experience, we end up with a mix of both Zod and types and sometimes types that need to be converted to Zod. It's all quite verbose and janky.

I quite like the approach of Typia (uses build-time inline of JavaScript), but it's not compatible with all build chains and questions abound on its viability post Go refactor.

In my code, everything is a Zod schema and we infer interfaces or types from the schemas. Is there a place where this breaks down?

Not that I know of aside from code comments (which I like), but I much prefer writing TypeScript to Zod
