I disagree that you're worse off (the core of my comment was that even a shitty migration encourages better practices)... but I wasn't super familiar with TS hinting - using ts-ignore would be preferable.

Personally, I mostly work in PHP and we use a similar system. Strict typing is default off so we've slowly propagated declare(strict_types=1); to enable compile and runtime checking on a per file basis.
