@AleCx04 I had a "senior dev" chew me out for saying basic jQuery without any plugins has been completely useless since ES6 got wide support.

Disliking static typing doesn’t make senior a waste of money.

@uyouthe indeed, but a frontend dev who can't write JavaScript (which is valid typescript) is a waste of money

While I agree they need to upskill if that's where your codebase lies, bear in mind Typescript is far from ubiquitous. If picked at random, I wouldn't expect a senior frontend dev to necessarily know much about Typescript at all.
