Algorithmically worse doesn't mean worse in practice

Can you show a common line of type script that will take exponential complexity for typescript to resolve?

I think you misunderstood my comment.

My understanding is you are saying TypeScript has a similar complexity problem in its type system as Swift.

I am wondering if you have a common example that would timeout or have problems.

If not then I struggle to see what similarity you are seeing.

(Genuine question, I am interested in what other languages do)

No, I'm saying it has a worse system than Swift's. The point I'm making is that they've designed things such that the normal case doesn't hit this, while Swift keeps adding APIs that exercise the worst of their type system.

Everyone misunderstood your reply.

Perhaps it was a pure academic reply? Because reality always trumps theory.

Yes, exactly.
