Description
# Type inference using method group natural type
* Specification: https://github.com/dotnet/csharplang/pull/10239
* Discussion: https://github.com/dotnet/csharplang/discussions/9006
## Summary
[summary]: #summary
It allows the natural type of a method group to contribute to method type inference, so scenarios like the following can work:
```
Test(IsEven); // Error CS0411 The type arguments for method 'Program.Test(Func)' cannot be inferred from the usage. Try specifying the type arguments explicitly.
partial class Program
{
public static bool IsEven(int x) => x % 2 == 0;
public static void Test(Func predicate) { }
}
```
