⏯ Playground Link
💻 Code
declare const x: "a" | "b"
const y: number = x
// ~
// Type 'string' is not assignable to type 'number'.
// Type 'string' is not assignable to type 'number'. (2322)
🙁 Actual behavior
You see same error message twice
🙂 Expected behavior
The error message should be the one in 3.9.7 ie...
Type '"a" | "b"' is not assignable to type 'number'.
Type '"a"' is not assignable to type 'number'. (2322)
Or the following message just once also works...
Type 'string' is not assignable to type 'number'. (2322)
