Overview

Moving discussion out of https://twitter.com/JoshuaKGoldberg/status/1500610010576994306: it seems to me that there are at least two classifications of lint users we should target:

• Starter: most users at least to begin with. These users likely don't have a "power user" w.r.t. typescript-eslint on their project and thus don't want particularly strict, annoying options enabled. They should be given rules that are clearly demonstrate linting value.
  • Lint configuration target today: recommended or recommend-requiring-type-checking
• Power: users who have seen the power of typed linting and want to get the most out of it. They want our somewhat-opinionated strict configs that enforce best practices too -- and can handle the sometimes aggressive lint errors as a result.
  • Lint configuration target today: missing

I propose we create a plugin:@typescript-eslint/strict config that adds a suite of best practice rules on top of recommended-requiring-type-checking.
