'use strict'; declared in firebase function samples

I've noticed that 'use strict';is declared at the top of a lot of files in https://github.com/firebase/functions-samples but yet, when I watch different firebase videos on youtube from the firebase team, they don't use it there. I've googled what it actually means, and it makes sense that I would enable this so called "strict mode" on my production grade project, but I was wondering if anyone could shed any light on why it's not included in the videos/every sample. Maybe I'm just being anal. Maybe it's just me being a Java dev for so long that I don't understand what it is (new to this server/nodejs world of things. I also get that this probably has nothing to do with firebase as well.

It sounds like @codingdoug was saying that TS files don't need use strict; for strict mode.

In the sample TS function on the github page it does include this line. Are you saying that the sample TS file is incorrect?

Apologies if this is a dumb question and that this is a bit all over the place.
