Code written below your line gets executed if you don't return early. More breaking news at 8.

Seriously, why would you think that assigning a value would stop your script from executing? Maybe the Typescript example is missing some context, but it seems like such a weird case to present as a "data race".

This is more a control flow issue than a data race issue. I've seen this countless times. And it is often a sign that you don't spend too much time writing JavaScript/Typescript. You get shot in the foot by this very often. And some linters will catch this - most do actyally
