Noooo! Go away with those ideas! JavaScript is great because it’s not strict. That’s the flexibility that allows for speed.

I have like 30 different APIs I implement at work, but I only pull out a few attributes from each. I don’t want to go to the moon and back creating types for all this crap, I’ll have more than a 100 different types to model because of all the nested data and convoluted structures the APIs return.

I want the flexibility to incur tech debt where I want to, I don’t want the language to get in my way. That’s what makes JavaScript great!
