💻 Code

// @exactOptionalPropertyTypes

type T = {
  foo?: true;
  bar?: true;
};

type WrappedT<t extends T> = [t];

// Since Omit is normally treated as homomorphic, should work but errors with:
// Type 'true | undefined' is not assignable to type 'true'.
type OmitBarFromWrapped<t> =
  t extends WrappedT<infer inner> ? WrappedT<Omit<inner, "bar">> : never;

// Even if we directly rewrite Omit to be homomorphic, we still lose assignability with EOPT
type OmitHomomorphicFromWrapped<t> =
  t extends WrappedT<infer inner>
    ? WrappedT<HomomorphicOmit<inner, "bar">>
    : never;

type HomomorphicOmit<t, keyToOmit> = {
  [k in keyof t as k extends keyToOmit ? never : k]: t[k];
};

// Normally in this situation, I have a conform utility to force TS to allow the type
// but this is maybe the first time I've also seen that not work?
type OmitHomomorphicFromWrappedConformed<t> =
  t extends WrappedT<infer inner>
    ? WrappedT<conform<HomomorphicOmit<inner, "bar">, T>>
    : never;

type conform<t, base> = t extends base ? t : base;

🙁 Actual behavior

Applying a homomorphic mapping to a type can break property assignability with EOPT

🙂 Expected behavior

Should preserve assignability
