Thanks for linking your article. That's been almost exactly my experience right down to the details of dealing with PRs and the fanaticism with typing. I think it is too easy to equate TypeScript with 100% perfect types and perhaps that is what I have the bigger issue with. I just was trying to push the boundaries with my library especially in the area of JSX and TypeScript really felt like a limitation to creativity. Which has been hard simply because it's taken creativity to prove that a precompiled Reactive library can use JSX with so many recognizable naysayers like Rich Harris, and Evan You.
I do get why better typeable APIs generally are better and I've seen the same move to simple APIs after. But definitely painful when trying to push boundaries.
In any case great article and I've distributed it to my team.
