No, that kind of interop, especially static interop (assignability), would've been totally unworkable. Despite the length of the changelog, there are very few breaking changes to the user-facing API surface. It's mostly internal/structural changes and deprecations (most of which can be fixed with a find&replace).
Report back about that .d.ts issue. It should be far better. That kind of type explosion usually happens when TypeScript needs to infer function/method return types. Zod 4 uses isolatedDeclarations so this kind of thing shouldn't happen.
