Typescript: Destructing doesnt allow for discriminated union

[maraisr]

TypeScript Version: 4.1.0-beta

Code

function generate(who: string): {json: true, body: {hello: string}} | {json: false, body: string} {
    return {json: true, body: {hello: who}}
}

const {body, json} = generate('world');

if (json) {
    body // should give you auto-complete, for `.hello`
} else {
    body // should be a string, thus giving `includes` as an example
}

Issue
As you'll find from the code example, body on line 8 doesnt autocomplete with .hello

Sometimes issues are academic speak that I have no clue if it's even the same thing! Thanks for the "duplicate" advice, I shall subscribe to that issue. Maintainers feel free to close this perhaps.
