No they don't. Enums are actually unique in being the only Typescript feature that requires code gen, and they consider that to have been a mistake.
In any case that's not the cause of the difference here.
This isn't true, there are other features that "emit code", that includes: namespaces, decorators and some cases even async / await (when targeting ES5 or ES6).
Ah yeah I forgot about namespaces. I don't think they're a popular feature.
The other two only generate code for backwards compatibility. When targeting the latest JavaScript versions they don't generate anything.
Ok decorators are technically still only a proposal so they're slightly jumping the gun there, but the point remains.
