I’ve done that, and I’ve coded on projects with big teams, with and without linters, for way longer than that, with multiple languages. Linters have never contributed anything close to what a half decent type system does to a project.
Types, tests, lints are all complementary. Your comparison is meaningless. The fact that you'd even compare the two shows how much your experience with linters is worth.

"I can eat this 8-patty burger because I'm going for a run later"
