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".

Whether you think that or not is not the issue - the fix is very obvious once pointed out to you. The arguement the author is making is that a bug like that TS issue can be very difficult and time consuming to track down and is not picked up on by the compiler.
