>so at best it saves you a transpilation pass and doesn't improve safety.
That's a bit misleading. Node being able to run TS code does not "improve safety", because that's not where the type checking happens. You can do type checking in your editor, or various other points in your toolchain.
Node being able to run TS code reduces the friction in writing TS code, which indirectly helps with type safety.
