Personally, if tc39 someday accepts the types proposal I feel like that will be a really fine middle ground. https://github.com/tc39/proposal-type-annotations
https://github.com/total-typescript/ts-reset <-- this fixes the `(string | undefined)[]` issue and a few other quirks. Obviously it's annoying to need a library to fix quirks, but better than nothing.
I learned Javascript first. I remember that Typescript looked so daunting to me at first. It also depends on how you approach it. My first incursion in Typescript was with an online course very poorly given, and I'm sure that's what left the "daunting" mark on me. I wish totaltypescript.com existed back then.
