If you are used to structural typed systems though this actually "feels" expected. Don't get me wrong, I know where you are coming from. But the realisation comes from nominal systems, which are different beasts. As long as it actually evaluates to the expectations in the head of the developers using it, then that's okay.

However, regularly it's not the case -- especially with people moving from nominal systems.

TS can't really be practically nominal when it has to be constrained by its compile target. So I guess it ultimately boils down to an anomaly/criticism born from the legacy of how web standards came about.
