as long as the arXiv doesn't accept Typst, it's never going to be a real alternative to LaTeX. and the arXiv maintainers seem either hostile or indifferent to Typst

doesn't appear indifferent or hostile
haven't watched it but my only data point for that claim is this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/typst/comments/1dcu3p8/i_contacted_...
TL;DW: there is interest in supporting Typst, but there are roadblocks:
* Higher priority work currently being done on ArXiV (moving from Perl to Python/cloud)
* No "standard" Typst distro
* Support team needs to be re-trained for a new language
* Persistency: TeX has 30+ years of history; will Typst be around in 30 years? Will current code compile? Will existing documents be supported?
