💻 Code

export let foo = `${''}`;

export const bar = `${''}`;

export function baz() {
    return `${''}`;
}

🙁 Actual behavior

bar has a type error:

Variable must have an explicit type annotation with --isolatedDeclarations.(9010)
input.tsx(3, 14): Add a type annotation to the variable bar.

foo would also have a type error if as const was added to the expression.

🙂 Expected behavior

No type error

Additional information about the issue

fun fact: I accidentally discovered this behavior when I found that oxc-transform has type errors for both const, let, and return types.
