💻 Code

interface SomeType {
    // On 5.6.0, experiment by making this prop required.
    uniqueProp?: string;
}

declare const obs: Observable<SomeType>;

function argGetsWrongType(): Observable<{}> {
    return obs.pipe(tap(arg => {
        arg;
        //^?
        // Expected: SomeType in 5.5.4
        // Actual:   {} in v5.6.0-beta to 5.6.0-dev.20240816 (at least)
    }));
}

function argGetsCorrectType() {
    return obs.pipe(tap(arg => {
        arg;
        //^?
        // Always correct
    }));
}

interface Observable<T> {
    pipe<A>(op: OperatorFunction<T, A>): Observable<A>;
}
interface UnaryFunction<T, R> { (source: T): R; }
interface OperatorFunction<T, R> extends UnaryFunction<Observable<T>, Observable<R>> { }
interface MonoTypeOperatorFunction<T> extends OperatorFunction<T, T> { }
declare function tap<T>(next: (value: T) => void): MonoTypeOperatorFunction<T>;

🙁 Actual behavior

arg is inferred as {}

🙂 Expected behavior

arg is inferred as SomeType as was consistent in v5.5.4
