Possibly you're over-reading, but definitely you didn't answer my question.

What's wrong with "because of social and evolutionary pressure"?

At their peril, because any set of rules, no matter how seemingly simple, has edge cases that only become apparent once we take on the task of implementing them at the code level into a functioning app. And that's assuming specs have been written up by someone who has made every effort to consider every relevant condition, which is never the case.

That's debatable. I think most people that work with TS see it as a syntax extension for JS. Do you think JSX is a programming language?
