type predicate-ness lost when using Function.prototype.bind

TypeScript Version: 3.2.4 or @next as of 2019-01-22

Code

const isArray: typeof Array.isArray = Array.isArray.bind(Array);

Expected behavior:
Compiles.

Actual behavior:

Error message:

error TS2322: Type '(arg: any) => boolean' is not assignable to type '(arg: any) => arg is any[]'.
  Signature '(arg: any): boolean' must be a type predicate.

What seems to be happening is that the type predicate-ness of Array.isArray is lost when .bind is used. I tested with a few type predicate functions, and always get the same error.

Playground Link:

Not reproducible on playground, because it depends on a higher TS version.

In the playground, the type of the RHS is any, so there is no compilation error.

Comienza reproduciendo el ejemplo de TypeScript 3.2.4 con Array.isArray.bind(Array) y compara su comportamiento con typescript@next. Traza cómo Function.prototype.bind conserva las firmas de las funciones y los predicados de tipo; se considera terminado cuando el ejemplo compila sin perder el tipo del predicado.
