I don't really experience this issue and I use Web storm which is basically the same thing. I find that the dynamic type hinting plus the combination of using JS Doc formatted comments rarely leaves me with any ambiguity when writing vanilla JavaScript.

Are you using types in your JS Doc comments? If so, that's not vanilla JavaScript.

It is because it runs in the browser unprocessed.

You edit a file and reload, no munging pipeline,

JS Doc is just comments. (But the typechecker can still read them.)
