Description
When I run my script w/out `source-map-support` in recent versions of node, internal code is greyed out:

When I run with `source-map-support` I get a nice trace showing my TypeScript file but no colors:

Is there some way to get the colors back?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported Node.js stack traces with and without source-map-support, using the screenshots as the expected comparison. Trace where source-map-support formats mapped TypeScript stack frames and where terminal colors are lost; done means mapped traces retain the intended colors.
