💻 Code

declare class A {
	IsA(): this is A;
}

declare const pattern: A | undefined;
function applyPattern() {
	if (pattern?.IsA() === false) {
		pattern;
		// ^?
		return;
	}
	pattern;
	// ^?
}

🙁 Actual behavior

pattern is narrowed down to A, removing the undefined

🙂 Expected behavior

pattern should only be narrowed to A | undefined
