Type narrowing of `target: type[T]` using insinstance seems to fool mypy

Bug Report
Well, I was writing some sort of converter from unstructured data to a dataclass, so I had a function that uses f[T](obj, target_type: type[T]) -> T and while in the end I stick to typing.cast for that, I also tried several solutions, they are below.

One of them intuitively should(?) work (return_checktype), but mypy refuses to follow them, and one of them is obviously wrong in hindsight (return_checkval), but mypy is happy with it.

To Reproduce

from typing import reveal_type


def return_checkval[T](target_type: type[T]) -> T:
    # runtime check that target_type is int
    if isinstance(target_type, int):
        reveal_type(target_type)
        return 42  # and they lived happily ever after

    raise ValueError("Unsupported type")


x = return_checkval(int)
print(x)


def return_checktype[T](target_type: type[T]) -> T:
    # runtime check that target_type is int
    if target_type is int:
        reveal_type(target_type)
        return 42  # errors here

    raise ValueError("Unsupported type")


# example test
x = return_checktype(int)
print(x)

Expected Behavior

At the very least, it should have two reveal_type outputs, and it should reject the first function completely. That's what (based)pyright.
Ideally, it should also allow the second function, but (based)pyright also rejects it :(

Actual Behavior

t.py:20: note: Revealed type is "type[T`-1]"
t.py:21: error: Incompatible return value type (got "int", expected "T")  [return-value]
Found 1 error in 1 file (checked 1 source file)

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/private/tmp/test/t.py", line 13, in <module>
    x = return_checkval(int)
  File "/private/tmp/test/t.py", line 10, in return_checkval
    raise ValueError("Unsupported type")
ValueError: Unsupported type

Your Environment

mypy version 1.19.1 (compiled yes)
python version .. honestly have no idea which one it uses, but python --version is 3.14
just run it mypy . from the folder in /tmp

Beginne damit, den bereitgestellten Reproducer mit mypy 1.19.1 auszuführen, und vergleiche die von ihm angezeigten Typen und Diagnosen mit dem erwarteten Verhalten. Verfolge den Pfad der Typverengung für isinstance(target_type, int) und target_type is int; fertig ist die Aufgabe, wenn die ungültige erste Funktion abgelehnt wird und das unterstützte Verhalten bei der Typverengung durch Regressionstests abgedeckt ist.
