In a recent code review, it was suggested that we move verbatimModuleSyntax: true from individual package/local configurations to the root tsconfig.json.
Using this flag is considered a TypeScript best practice (introduced in TS 5.0) as it enforces a stricter, more predictable relationship between how modules are written and how they are emitted. It prevents ambiguity regarding whether an import is being used for values or just for types.
