💻 Code

// a.ts
export let x: { foo(): void }

if (!!false) {
    // @ts-expect-error Variable 'x' is used before being assigned.
    x.foo()
}

// b.ts
import { x } from './a.ts'

// TS compiles, throws at runtime
x.foo()

🙁 Actual behavior

TS compiles, only throws at runtime.

🙂 Expected behavior

TS refuses to compile without ! non-null assertion, with error probably being reported in the exporting module a.ts rather than the importing module b.ts.
