Description

@DanielRosenwasser

The comparability and assignment compatibility rules differ only in that

  • a union type is comparable to a target type if any of its constituents, rather than all of its constituents, are comparable to that target type,
  • whether a type is considered weak has no bearing on whether two types are comparable,
  • whether an object type has excess properties has no bearing on whether two types are comparable,
  • an object type with some optional property is comparable to an object type containing a property of the same name if it has a compatible type, regardless of whether that property is optional, and
  • when relating any two signatures, each signature is always instantiated using type Any for all type arguments.
