Seems like there's a slowdown from this - maybe a fluke?

TypeScript Bot (@typescript-bot) perf test faster

Heya Daniel Rosenwasser (@DanielRosenwasser), I've started to run the abridged perf test suite on this PR at 1e2eb03. You can monitor the build here.

Update: The results are in!

+ someType(type, isGenericTypeWithUnionConstraint) ||
+ // When the contextual type is 'unknown', we may need to narrow for compatibility with non-null targets.
+ // This allows some parity with a constraint of '{} | null | undefined'.
+ (type.flags & TypeFlags.Instantiable) && contextualType && isEmptyObjectType(contextualType);


Should this be gated on strictNullChecks?

Daniel Rosenwasser (DanielRosenwasser) · 2022-04-28T05:36:04Z

RWC reveals a few interesting things:

Substituting unknown for the error messages is definitely a bit confusing.
This gets worse with unions - e.g.
```
letf=<T,UextendsUsefulType>(x: T|U): object=>x
```
So whereas this used to report that T | U wasn't assignable to object, it now reports unknown isn't assignable to object.

Going to rerun with latest changes.

Anders Hejlsberg (ahejlsberg) · 2022-04-28T13:49:50Z

Hmm, yeah, I don't much like the error message changes in the RWC baselines. The unknown makes it seem like the expression doesn't have a type at all.

Daniel Rosenwasser (DanielRosenwasser) · 2022-04-28T19:11:10Z

Discussed with Anders Hejlsberg (@ahejlsberg) offline - this PR is a bit too corner-casey and produces worse messages when a type isn't narrowed. We're interested in seeing if we can leverage smarter intersection types with {} while narrowing generics, which is a change that will have to wait for 4.8 at the least. For now we'll have to live with the break, which people can get around by adding a constraint of {} | null | undefined.
