I have an object with an optional boolean field. It's passed to a function. I destructure the field, assigning false if it's undefined. I then combine it with the ! operator in an if-condition. The rule complains about an unexpected non-boolean.

Repro

{
  "rules": {
    "@typescript-eslint/strict-boolean-expressions": "error"
  }
}

type Options = { field?: boolean }

function validate({ field = false }: Options) {
  if (!field) {
    // …
  }
}

(To be fair the type of the function argument is inferred, but that's harder to express in a repro.)

Expected Result

No linter errors.

Actual Result

The rule complains that field is a non-boolean.
