TypeScript Plugged In: Compiler Flags: noUncheckedIndexAccess

When using array index access in #typescript, watch out for non-existent elements, as default compiler options will make the compiler infer that all elements of arrays, no matter how big the index is, would exist. Which sometimes is not only true, but could even be illogical. This is where noUncheckedIndexAccess compiler flag come into play.
