tsc-esm-fix VS ts2esm

Probably because it compiles them to a pre-standard ES5-compatible implementation based on good ol' `Foo.prototype`. And since they've already handled them one way, they can't become spec-compliant without breaking backwards compatibility.

The other place where this shines through particularly egregiously is the support of ESM static import/export. Everybody's build tools been compiling that back down to CJS so hard that Node.js 16+ introduced intentional incompatibilities between CJS and ESM modes just to get people to finally switch to the standards-compliant module system. So you end up in a situation where the library is written in TypeScript with ESM syntax but the only available browser build is a CJS blob which completely defeats the main touted benefit of static imports/exports, namely dead code elimination...

So you decide what the hell, let's switch TSC to ESM and moduleResolution node16, and end up having to use something like https://github.com/antongolub/tsc-esm-fix because the only allowed fix for TSC doing the wrong thing is at the completely wrong level - https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/esm-node.html - if you don't see what's wrong with that, you're one of today's lucky 10000...
