1) Put JS in maintenance mode, don’t add any language features, only runtime

2) TS becomes the official mainline, whoever doesn’t like types can just keep writing as they did before, because valid JS is valid TS

Problem solved, it’s not that difficult.

TS trademark is owned by Microsoft.

That would be a case of out of the frying pan into the fire. Not really better.

Same as Go and Google then. Is the ownership of the trademark of the name/logo of a FOSS language really that big a deal?

>>waltha+Lx
That's the entire issue here: JS is a FOSS language and they don't like that Oracle owns the trademark.
