That's also my understanding: "Javascript is great because you can use other languages and then transpile them to JS."

JS itself is great, I prefer it to most other languages due to the flexibility that it allows. Adding types through TS to safeguard against footguns doesn't mean you're not still using JS. You can also add the types using comments instead if you prefer it, which means you're actually writing raw JS.
