All our codebases are strict mode. But I see value for explicit any. But on the other hand I wish any just worked. It's been hard because casting to any sometimes just doesn't work too. I understand why but try to teach developers that. There isn't just an escape hatch. I think though for junior devs this is an easier pickup because they sort of don't realize what they are missing in terms of how you can approach problems with JavaScript.
