Research direction
Begin by examining the test 'SubmissionResultType' in the Roslyn test suite to understand the expected behavior and the specific scenario that fails. Then, locate the VB Interactive submission handling code in the Roslyn source, likely in the Scripting or Interactive namespaces, and trace the conversion path to identify where the result type is not being correctly converted to the host specified ResultType.
