A) GWT is 20 years old and not similar to how modern transpilation works

The built in browser debugger is incredibly good. As long as the transpilation is simple and matches JS semantics you can still use the debugger. I haven't seen good debugging tools when using languages more distant from JS but I'd love to know if they've become viable.
