Like I said to the other person, those are just types over top of JavaScript that can still fail if/when coercion happens under the hood.

I don't even know how to search it now, but a specific example came up on here of a time when JavaScript libraries will cause problems, and problems you can't even see very well if you're expecting it to act strictly-typed.
