🕗 Version & Regression Information

• This is the behavior in every version I tried, and I found earlier issues (https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/pull/9407 and the PR that added this feature https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/pull/9407)

💻 Code

function bar( arg: any ) {
    if ( arg === null ) {
        return arg;
    }

    if ( arg === false ) {
        return arg;
    }
}

🙁 Actual behavior

arg should be null/false inside the if conditions

🙂 Expected behavior

arg is any

The docs say this should work https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/2/narrowing.html
When using unknown instead of any it works perfectly fine. I think adjusting this, so it works for any too, isn't too far fetched.

Reproduisez le comportement de narrowing dans le TypeScript Playground lié et comparez-le au comportement documenté pour unknown. Suivez le chemin du type-checker pour l’equality narrowing de any, puis ajoutez une couverture de régression montrant que null et false sont réduits comme prévu, et exécutez les tests pertinents du compilateur.
