Description

In #6487, @omril1 added a new ignorePrimitives option. Which is great! It lets us configure individually whether bigints, booleans, numbers, and/or strings, are ignored by the rule.

As a convenience, it'd be nice to allow the option to be set as just the shorthand true - to set all of them as true.

"@typescript-eslint/prefer-nullish-coalescing": ["error", {
  ignorePrimitives: true,
}]

Additional Info

The label here is slightly inaccurate - it's not a new rule option, it's an augmentation to an existing option.
