This is the 2020 Tech Statement of the Year.

Even Eric Elliot can't refute that point, but he tries in his Medium articles.

Eric wrote books on the greatness of Javascript before Typescript came out. He regularly casts shadows on Typescript and doesn't acknowledge that Typescript was 2 years ahead of Javascript recently. He prefers linters over built in type safety.
