When used within the build optimizer, TypeScript 3.8 will consider certain imports to be unreferenced and errantly remove them even though they are used within the module. This results in runtime errors during application load. TypeScript 3.7 cannot be used due to it causing a build time error when used within the build optimizer. The build optimizer uses an independent version of TypeScript which allows it to use TypeScript 3.6 while applications continue to use TypeScript 3.7 or 3.8 to build the actual application.
