On “Alternative to using `namespaces`?”

This dude hit it on the head: https://www.reddit.com/r/typescript/comments/1d3zpow/comment/l6bn086/ Screw all the noisy people saying "namespaces are deprecated/outdated". And just because Anders Hejlsberg (ts creator) said he regrets namespaces, he's not saying they're deprecated/outdated he's explaining he would have done it differently if he could re-do it from scratch, and, particularly in the context of es-modules.
