While doing a quick test with this PR locally, I find some issues with type erasure and type bounds, worth adding some tests: // type erasure and generic signature would give different results, so calling f in Java may have issue
def f(x: String?): String? = xdef f1(x: String?): String = x match
case Ok(y) => y
case null => "none"
def f2[T <: String](x: T?): String = x match
case Ok(y) => y
case null => "none"
def f3[T <: String?](x: T): String = x match
case Ok(y) => y
case null => "none"
val s: String? = "a"
val b = s.isEmpty |
