DefinitelyTyped is the exact kind of thing I'm talking about. You put TypeScript definitions over things, but under the hood it's still JavaScript and can fail in JavaScript ways.

It can’t fail in javascript ways that require specific sequences of code to be written, if those sequences of code aren’t in the range of output of the Typescript compiler.
