Description
This example works in PHPStan and even PhpStorm recognizes the correct type (with its limited template implementation), do I overlook something?
Tested version 4.25 + 4.28

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported trait-template return-type behavior using the Psalm example at psalm.dev/r/d5129c097a and compare it with the PHPStan reproduction. Determine the expected inferred type and verify the behavior against the tested Psalm versions; done means the trait method's return type is inferred as expected and the reproduction no longer demonstrates a discrepancy.
