I was looking online to see what prompted Microsoft to adopt the rCL.tsrCY extension for TypeScript source files, when it was already being used for
the MPEG-4 Transport Stream format. IrCOm pretty sure the latter came first, before TypeScript was thought of.
First I found a GitHub bug report pleading with Apple not to interpret .ts files as MPEG-4 TS, because it played havoc with trying to do TypeScript development on macOS.
Then I found out the same thing happens on Windows as well! So Microsoft managed to screw up use of its own OS with this same confusion.
