— 

And in a way it is thinking over something that i rather not have without considering type safety so there is some cost of time

— Now how much it would be and the will benifits outweigh the cost that i don't know yet

— Where is the time cost?

— Type safety in JS can be incrementally added

— So it's optional everywhere

— Additional step of thinking and adding type safety where its good to have but not needed

— Yeah that's true

— Which step?

— I don't see it

— Well i don't yet do type safety

— But when i start to then i have to refactor
