Type checking is not necessary for the CJS and ES build configurations.
This is because the dist-types build checks all types, including code inside functions that do not appear in the API type declarations. I have verified this.
Skipping type checks will improve build times and avoid redundant compilation errors printed to the console. Because all 3 dist builds run concurrently in the "build" scripts of packages, any existing type error is printed to the console 3 times in interleaved lines, resulting in a hard to read output.
savings in CI:
build packages step ~6m40s -> ~4m42s
