TypeScript was created to add super powers to JavaScript. Most people think that TypeScript is just a different way to write JavaScript. No, TypeScript goes beyond that, TypeScript is a tool to build applications for the web.
I bet you pound for pound, learning TypeScript will further increase your abstraction and problem solving skills, with TypeScript you can manage complexity in an organised and structured format without feeling restricted.
Either approach you implement to writing your codes will be upgraded when you write TypeScript, and no matter how much people want to say it's only static typing. Only static typing is the difference between an orchestra and a crazy band.
And If you say extra code is a disadvantage to TypeScript, is it better to write less code that you don't fully understand or is it better to write more code that you do understand? I don't really see extra code as being a disadvantage to TypeScript, plus there's supports type inference coupled with structural typing.
The extra learning curve attached to TypeScript is definitely worth it, the journey you go through when you learn and understand how TypeScript works, will leave off with better understanding about functional and object oriented programming in general and also how you should design applications.
