// Violates additivity

type X<T extends number|string> = Record<T,any>
type NS = `${number}${string}`
type N = `${number}`
type NSN = `${NS}${N}`
type A=X<NS>
type B=X<N>
type C=X<NSN>
const a:A = {'1':null} // pass (expected)
const b:B = {'1':null} // pass (expected)
const c:C = {'11':null} // fail (UNEXPECTED) <---------------------------🙁 Actual behavior
If two templates are concatenated, that result will not accept all concatenations of originally accepted strings.
(More narrow assessment: ${number}${string}${number} should be equivalent to ${number}${string}, but isn't.)
