Description
I think that it would be useful to ban certain types from being extended. The job of the rule is to ban the usage of certain types and provide an alternative way if possible. Creating a new interface and extending from a harmful/confusing type also will introduce the usage of that not wanted type.
One use case might be to eliminate the usage of HTMLProps
and HTMLAttributes
.
Fail
interface Props extends from HTMLProps<HTMLButtonElement> {}
Pass
interface Props extends from ComponentPropsWithoutRef<'div>' {}

and HTMLAttributes
can be problematic: https://react-typescript-cheatsheet.netlify.app/docs/advanced/patterns_by_usecase/#wrappingmirroring-a-html-element
