Based on that rationale, anyone using Typescript is being exclusionary to developers who don't know Typescript.
They picked a system that suits the projects work flow, is well documented and a relatively low learning curve for anyone interested. I doubt cvs would be the main turnoff for someone looking to be an OpenBSD developer.

Maybe well documented, but "suits the project flow" and "low learning curve", absolutely not
(I mean, ok, maybe "low learning curve" if you're developing a very simple UNIX project in the 90s)
CVS is one of the tools where I literally never look back and say "ok this was nice". SVN and Mercurial something here and there. CVS? Never
That argument would be more analogous if you picked say CoffeeScript. The point is it’s something that used to be reasonably popular but for reasons the vast majority of the world has moved on from.
