💻 Code

type Data = [a: 1, b: 2, ...c: 3[]]

type TestType1<T extends any[]> = 
    T extends [...infer R extends [any, any], ...any[]] ? R : never
type test1 = TestType1<Data>
//   ^?

type TestType2<T extends any[], Mask extends any[] = [any, any]> = 
    T extends [...infer R extends Mask, ...any[]] ? R : never
type test2 = TestType2<Data>
//   ^?

🙁 Actual behavior

When passing the Mask as a generic and trying to extends the tuple with it to extract the relevant part, the resulting tuple is well formed, but item types are replaced with any

🙂 Expected behavior

Expect that constraint on infer to works wether as an explicit form or a generic holding a type with the exact same form, which used to be the case priori to typescript 5.4 bu breaks since
