(DONT COMMENT IF YOU HAVE BELOW 500 KARMA)

I can't make my mind on how to code these js functions.

I made EVERY function of my library throw if one of the arguments are not of it's specified type.

One part of me is saying that it's not standard js code and writing non idiomatic or non standard thing is a bad thing.
Also, that it bloats the functions, that the code gets ugly, that I already use a linter and have unit tests, that you lose some performance with needless typechecks (I could turn it off just for normal execution).

Another part of me is saying that it's valid to this that because if for some reason one of these functions get called with incorrect arguments, then it might not fail in that function but in some child function 3 levels down the stack trace.

If you want to have an example of what I'm doing, it's this:

import { abides, ofType } from 'abides'

const throws = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'test'
const $chunk = ofType(Buffer)
const $text = ofType(String)
const $write = ofType(Function)
const $offsetX = ofType(Number)
const $offsetY = ofType(Number)
const $setText = ofType(Function)
const schema = {
$chunk, $text, $write, $offsetX, $offsetY, $setText,
}

export default function typeText(args = {}) {
abides(args, schema, { throws })
...
}
