Svelte decided to ditch it because it became impractical due to the compilation step slowing down development and making debugging their compiler harder. I think for libraries it makes sense to go the jsdoc way as long as consumers can choose typescript.

Am I the only one scratching my head trying to understand why Svelte supported it at the first place?

The TS type system is not a good match for the project.
