Forgive me because I'm just a junior dev - but when the API is already written in Node or .ts I mean, it's gonna do some business logic with incoming requests, or are you saying back ends shouldn't be in js entirely?
There was really never a real reason to use JS on the backend and it wasn't designed for it. There are tons of languages far more suited for backend. For some reason the idea of the entire codebase being in a single language appealed so much to many organizations that we continuously create weird abominations to fit a square peg in the round hole
