Suggested Changes
The documentation for the @typescript-eslint/no-extra-parens rule is here:
https://typescript-eslint.io/rules/no-extra-parens/
At the top of the page, we can clearly see the formatting warning:
We strongly recommend you do not use this rule or any other formatting linter rules. Use a separate dedicated formatter instead. See What About Formatting? for more information.
The documentation for the @typescript-eslint/no-extra-semi rule is here:
https://typescript-eslint.io/rules/no-extra-semi/
However, it does have have the warning. This seems like it is a bug, because when we use Prettier, it automatically removes superfluous semicolons, making this rule unnecessary. Thus, I believe that the warning should be shown in the same way that it is for the no-extra-parens rule.
The reason that the warning is not showing is because the meta.type for the rule is equal to suggestion instead of layout. (no-extra-parens has a meta.type of layout, so the warning shows.)
Thus, I recommend that we change the meta.type for the rule to layout.
