I’d rather take a compile step than having no type safety in JS, even as a user.

Except... the compilation step doesn't add type safety to JS.

As an aside, type safety hasn't been something I truly miss in JS, despite how often it's mentioned.

I think they are talking about typescript which is compiled into javascript

Ok, that could be true. I assumed they meant the "building" phase that some frameworks go through.
