Repro Code

import {
  AST_NODE_TYPES,
  ESLintUtils,
  TSESTree,
} from '@typescript-eslint/utils';

export const listener: ESLintUtils.RuleListener = {
  SpreadElement(node: TSESTree.SpreadElement): void {
    switch (node.parent.type) {
      case AST_NODE_TYPES.NewExpression: {
        break;
      }
    }
  },
};

ESLint Config

No response

tsconfig

No response

Expected Result

I expect that comparing node.parent.type to AST_NODE_TYPES.NewExpression to be allowed when node is TSESTree.SpreadElement, but it isn't because TypeScript errors.

Actual Result

I get this error from TypeScript:

Type 'AST_NODE_TYPES.NewExpression' is not comparable to type 'AST_NODE_TYPES.ArrayExpression | AST_NODE_TYPES.CallExpression | AST_NODE_TYPES.ObjectExpression'. ts(2678)

Additional Info

A couple similar but not identical issues related to this:

• Bug: NewExpression doesn't allow SpreadElement as argument #5421
• ArrayExpression does not include SpreadElement as possible value of elements property #4963
