problems that don’t have anything to do with the language.

My concerns about it don't have anything to do with the language. More the tooling that would come with it.

If browsers natively understood TypeScript, I'd use the type-safety features. But I don't want things like the TypeScript compiler or Node to be a dependency of my build process. Not if the only payoff is type safety.
