Cannot assign property to same type with generic key

TypeScript Version: 3.6.0-dev.20190803

Search Terms: assigning keyof generic key

Code

type A = { a: number }
type B = { b: number }

interface Foo {
    a: A
    b: B
}

declare let target: Foo
declare let source: Foo
declare let key: keyof Foo

target[key] = source[key]

Expected behavior:

I expect it to allow the assignment. Since typeof target and typeof source are the same, I expect typeof target[key] to always be the same as typeof source[key].

Actual behavior:

error TS2322: Type 'A | B' is not assignable to type 'A & B'.

Start with the minimal TypeScript example in the issue and reproduce the TS2322 diagnostic in the linked Playground. Read related issue #31665 and investigate the type-checking path for indexed assignment with a keyof generic key. Done means the shown assignment is accepted while preserving soundness for differing source and target types.
