it's not personal
but please
stop, examine, and challenge the assumptions about what this standard will achieve
every argument is so easy to dispute
JS has no other "mock" features like this, and it will cause so many real problems 😔

so this enable people who already deploy trash to deploy marginally less trash
wow yeah
great
you really are struggling to come up with arguments, aren't you?
why are you working so hard to try to *make* this into a good idea 🤷♂️

but sure, it'll work in Node
and as you noted, already does

you're assuming any competing type system would also be fully elided with no runtime implications
their syntax would not be supported, it would be ignored - just as TS syntax would be ignored
there's really nothing useful or interesting about that
Hegel was a thing - JS/TS users didn't even care

I'll say it again:
loaders.
JSX.
you're simply not going to get what you imagine
you'll use this feature once or twice, find it annoying because it's not like your dev env - your code won't actually work and you'll revert back to tools that work
no one is going to actually use this 😌

okay, but a browser or dev tools extension could do that
that is not a reason to burden end users with downloading types
no one benefits from that
this is a developers-only feature
it belongs in developer related tooling and does not need to impact the language spec or production runtime

write it where??
if you're using tools (which you are unless you're DHH) you're already doing that. already solved.
the only difference is now you can ship types to end users.
which you absolutely shouldn't do.

but do you have any TS code that doesn't also require JSX or a loader?
are you going to enter typed code into the console? which it'll ignore
are you going to stop minifying and bundling? make users wait longer?
this feature is as useless as it is harmful

you are able to do that already - there is great tooling for it, go use it
and none of that tooling is going away with this standard - tools were around long before TS and they exist for a hundred other reasons
this proposal would change nothing
zilch
zero
completely pointless

this will be the worst thing that's ever happened to the language
the *only* thing accomplished by this proposal is to *ban* types from the language, forever

it won't. it's less about structure and more about the use of specific words and phrases. basically no one writes like an LLM, which is why LLM text is so blatantly obvious 😉

don't believe a word it says
if an LLM knew when it was or was not writing stuff that sounds like LLM, you could simply prompt it not to
but it can't - no more than you can ask it not to hallucinate
you can use a tool like gptzero.me to actually check for LLM-ness

never liked Mac
don't like the desktop environment, and they give you zero options to customize anything

ran it for about a month, but recently gave up, as it keeps crashing, and this Ubuntu crash reporter doesn't even tell me what crashed 🤷♂️

my latest most favorite feature is, while I'm typing or moving my mouse across the screen, randomly, every open app gets minimized 😖
every week there's new bugs and nothing gets fixed
at this point, it feels like I'm running someone's homebrew hobby OS
