No warning when using unary +/- operators on functions and objects?

TypeScript Version: 2.6.1

Code

let func = () => "func";
+func; // no error
-func; // no error

let obj = { foo: "bar" };
+obj; // no error
-obj; // no error

Expected behavior:
Unary + or - is only applicable to a number or maybe a string. I would expect the lines listed as // no error to be errors.

Actual behavior:
Unary + and - never generates a warning no matter what crazy stuff I try to apply it to.

I was made aware of this behavior by a recent Stack Overflow question. I see from #7019 that unary + and - on strings is supported, and I guess I can understand that as a way to parse a string into a number (for +, anyway. Is - really used like this in practice?). But functions? objects? Seems more likely to be an error than intentional to me. Thoughts?

Reproduce the TypeScript 2.6.1 example and compare diagnostics for unary + and - on functions, objects, and strings. Review the existing unary-operator type-checking behavior; done means the intended invalid operands produce errors while supported string behavior remains deliberate and covered by tests.
