The type system isn't set up to be "required" today. You can run code without typechecking, and if you used the demo or just ran the `luau` executable, that's what happened. In an embedded context, you could choose to e.g. require all code to typecheck before running the compiler on it, and then you'd get more of the experience you're probably expecting here, i.e. refusal to run because it didn't typecheck. This is part of how we exist in a world where we had millions of lines of Lua 5.1 code in the wild written by hundreds of thousands of developers that we suddenly, overnight, turned into Luau code.
